I’m not against solar farms, I do think there are better places to site this one closer to Drax. I worry about the impact on the wildlife, especially the deer population in this area.

The proposed site is far too large for an area served by very small, already at full stretch roads. Howden is already being subject to thousands of new homes and the roads around already can't cope...

The proposed development will destroy, indefinitely, the productive farmland on which it would be constructed. This country needs all the farmland it can muster. Why is it even being considered as a...

Solar panels should be sourced from Britain (a factory in Wales makes them with a 25 yr guarantee) or from Europe, not from China as their materials and steels are inferior. Guarantees must be...

No comparison seems to be available between co2 saved by not using fossil fuel and co2 wasted by reducing the sunlight for photosynthesis. Alternate sources - roof tops. Or tide power.
