  1. Will there be any pro-wind speakers?

  2. This is an anti-wind”farm” meeting. Will they invite Scottish Renewables? Does Scottish Renewables invitie them?
    All I can say, is that I’m quite sure there will be a representative of every Scottish Windfarm Turbine manufacturer!

  3. PaulH from Barcelona says:

    Excellent. Progress being made on many fronts.
    The ‘Pensioner Death Farm’ scam continues to crumble.

  4. In India, on 9 May in New Delhi, we will have a one day meet on wind turbines, looks like to oppose it and to try and devise norms for setting up turbines so that they do not impact life and nature – wildlife. A petition has been admitted in the Rajasthan High Court, Jodhpur, on 1 April 2013 (no. 89552011) to seek stay order on a wind company in Jaisalmer’s countryside (Sam road), I am at Jaipur and in to active wildlife conservation: http://www.birdfair.org
