STOP Wind Turbines at Loch Ness & Glen Urquhart
Keep Glen Urquhart & Loch Ness untouched from major windfarm development in protection of the local wildlife, natural environment and areas of outstanding beauty in which our residents live and work and the majority of Scotland's tourists visit.
Why is this important?
Loch Ness is under threat from over 500 wind turbines approved and in the planning stage within a 22 mile radius. Loch Ness and the Great Glen are now prime targets for windfarm developers. There are calls to classify Loch Ness and the Great Glen a World Heritage Site because of their international importance. They are Scotland’s second most popular tourist draw. Yet, environmental destruction could threaten some of the Highland’s most scenic areas.
Loch Ness and environs and the Great Glen are under threat as never before from the attention of wind farm companies. You can make a difference by signing a petition to the Scottish Parliament pleading to save Glen Urquhart, Loch Ness and the Great Glen. These are the world’s most beautiful landscapes and contain some of Europe’s last remaining wild land. http://www.savelochness.com/main.html

Windfarm developers Force9 have now appealed this ruling to turn down the windfarm at local authority level. They have now appealed to the Scottish Government.
