I wish to object to this Scottish power Renewables planning application because of: - the hugely adverse impact it will have on local communities with as many as 7 projects lasting up to 15 years. - the impact it will have on the wildlife and environment in this very special area. - the impact it will have on the local economy- tourism is a key component of this and these projects will deter tourists and hence impact on local businesses whose livelihood comes from the tourist industry. I cannot understand why a project designed to have a beneficial effect on our country and our environment such as offshore wind energy can be allowed to have such a devastating effect on the very environment it is designed to save. A better solution such as offshore hubs and brownfield sites must be found.
