This project along with 3more proposed solar farms are likely to be the largest in Europe and are taking away not only many people's livelihoods but taking up thousands of acres of fine Lincolnshire farm land essential for feeding the nation which with the onset of climate change and the state of the world food is becoming harder to source. I implore you to consider this situation as once the land is lost to a few greedy short sited developers it is lost forever. In years to come the land will only be any good for industry hence our valuable farm land has gone. Whilst I am not against solar power the sheer size of these proposed solar farms is hideous and why not put them on scrap land or warehouse rooves. They are a total eyesore in our Lincolnshire countryside. The wildlife and conservation of our countryside will also be in danger as their habitats will have disappeared. Our planet is under threat from mankind anyway. Please don't allow our corner of grain growing Lincolnshire to be spoiled by a few short sighted people .
