Destroying greenbelt land for the green scam. You couldn't make it up🤦🏾‍♂️🤡

Net Zero = Paying for our own demise

This Net Zero nonsense needs to be stopped!

I’m sick of it. It’s the same up here in the north of Scotland. Poles, cables, pylons and substations EVERYWHERE. Landscape ruined. Rare breeding birds at risk. It’s criminal and is earning a few rich people even more money.

What our net zero campaigners do not mention is the maintenance of the windmills and their construction is completely non-recyclable.

Net zero is not obtainable.

A female French Judge has banned wind farms as detrimental to the enviroment .

This isn't about net zero, this is about corporate power. This is a very misleading and biased headline

Scrap this FARCE !!

Net zero is how many seats the Tories will have after the election.

The whole net zero is a load of bollocks, the public must rise up and use some sort of constructive protest

Government are supposed to be doing what's in the best interests of the people, but they rarely if ever consult the people and generally do what's in the best interests of whichever big business or sponsor is shouting loudest or virtue signalling the most or offering the most "payback"

Are you sure we are living in Britain ???

Saving the environment by destroying it. Genius.

Didn't the woman who runs the stables receive a letter that stated this company was going to Start Work before they had received Planning Permission? If that is the case, that is illegal is it not? The residents have the right to be informed and state their views on the up coming planning by this company Before they can start. I hate it when these big companies go ahead bulldozing over peoples lives without any legal rights. Conservation is an important part of animals and other wildlife and should be preserved.

Net zero will never ever happen why would it

So fracking was stopped, instead an extra wide Cable Corridor introduced that includes hugely disturbing engineering noise! LOL! Lancashire, you really have been shafted!

The elephant in the room is fosil fueled power plants have to still run in case the wind stops blowing, they can't be just switched on and off

What you need to understand is, that every politician has been bought in some way or other by business or industry. This is how they can do as they wish, when they wish, knowing that nobody in any position of (supposed) power will stop them.

Clean energy is a long way off . Having an electric car while dismantling the environment seems to be a green thing now.

2 million houses. Should cover a few of the new immigrants

How is it allowed to happen? Just pay the right people. Net zero =🐂💩

All in the name of “targets”. And for what? An unreliable source of power, by machines not one of which was manufactured here, where ownership is largely foreign and we have to subsidise it because it’s massively expensive. Lunacy, pure and simple.

What most people don't understand, is that wind turbines are at the mercy of the winds. You can't control the wind in the same manner as you can control the flow of water in hydroelectric dams. If the wind surpasses a certain level, the turbines would have to shut down or alter the propeller angel to let wind pass by, in other words, you have to sacrifice free energy in order to maintain the generator. And if there's gale wind, you have to shut it down completely, which means NO production. Basically, wind farms is the utopian fantasy of the metropolitan environmental activist class.

That means the local concerns will be ignored to suit the Paris Accord and devolution.

All a money making scam

They should protest, if they can. If JSO can block traffic… And two million homes, full time, is a complete fairy tale!

absolutely horrible why cant we keep our gas and coal fired power stations?

Heartbreaking!!

Most people have woken up to this Net Zero crap 😮

Since the cable runs from the farm to the coast, under the sea why the hell can't they just run it in the river Ribble which leads all the way through to Penwortham?

JSO stand around stopping people going about their business so these big companies can destroy the countryside and peoples lives.

This isn’t about the environment. It’s about money - someone is making a lot of money …. Total scam

GREEN IS THE NEW RED

Yes the developer will of course interact with the local community, the local community will be told to put up and shut up.

Big companies, have the power to do whatever mostly.

This is really sad ! How can the government choose to destroy an area with abundant wildlife and tell us that net zero is for the good of us ?????

The turbines are a con ...you need a backup when the wind doesn't blow 😂

They propose to put 27metre high pylons through 60 miles of countryside in Labour Wales...it's not very popular...

Sabotage.

All hail the 'green god' paganisam...Is being shoved at the world!!

The only thing green about the green initiative is the money to be made and the money being pocketed. Net Zero means zero benefit for the people who pay the taxes.

Recently across the river from a large wind turbine at Blyth, about 200 yds. Could not believe the noise, are these things really green or are we transferring pollution from one country to another?

Going green 💚 is also not green 💚

Some make trillions on this and we pay. Simple.

From the Internet... JUST two months before Rishi Sunak opened hundreds of new licences for oil and gas extraction in the North Sea, an IT firm founded by his father-in-law signed a $1.5 billion deal with energy giant BP. 2 Aug 2023

Surely there is a better way than this, the whole net zero thing is a scam and will probably never be even close to success.

That's the green activists for you

I bet the people of Fylde were sorry that their local MP Mark Menzies, hadn't remained in that flat. He hardly would have been missed representing them..

Disgusting

zero,net zero

And Labout want to build on the green belt, and be leaders in green energy (i.e stone age living). Bad enough, but it seems it what the majority of people want, they are ahead in the polls 😢

Destroying arable land

Can see why HS2 needed to be halted now!

Water pipes from the ellan Valley to Birmingham had to be underground. Why can't they Bury the cables.

There are plenty of places to put Wind Farms , without Destroying Communities.

Still waiting for cheap green energy bills 🙄£10 billion in subsidies a year and bills are up 🙄

According to the media, every one in the U.K. wants this…

Biggest con going

What will really be sad is in 10-15 years the wind farm will be abandoned because it is "to expensive" to maintain. And everything disrupted will be for nothing.

Saw an interesting video last week from some USA Senate hearing. The Senators provided a figure that has been doing the rounds in USA (but not made its way to the UK) that the cost of hardware in going net zero by 2050 is 300 TRILLION dollars -that's for the whole world, not just AMerica. QUestion isn't just where will this staggering amount come FROM, but where will it GO !?? NET ZERO = NET RUIN. Oh, and by the way, if the world's Government does spend 300 TRILLION Dollars......and the Temp creeps up......what then ????

Same in Norfolk, Suffolk and Essex. Windfarms out on the Norfolk coast and the need to get the power to Tilbury. It could go underground or, via the sea but, oh no, far too expensive for the shareholder profits, so a huge swathe of pylons will be built through greenbelt land, areas of outstanding natural beauty etc, etc. In answer to the ladies question, before she became too upset to continue, how can they start work before they get planning permission......? Simple, planning for this, unlike for normal people, is a forgone certainty. 🤷

Don't forget, this is all added to energy bills. You are paying for this! Tell your energy supplier you are not paying for net zero. Take it to the energy Ombudsman and state you were missold your energy.

If that's not a fu#k you we will do what we want then I don't know what is. Absolutely shocking.

Net zero is an extremist goal to pursue.

A few years ago pylons were being removed because they were supposedly bad for health particularly children. I live in Lincolnshire we got 400+ new pylons on the way if they get the go ahead.

Money is more important than people.

Decisions are made first, then a consultaion. Then the work starts regardless. How much more land has to be severly damaged for the country to become eco friendly. Look at the scars from HS2, and the east/west railway. That's just two examples.

During the eclipse temps dropped 5-20°C in 20-30 mins where's the green house? I suggest it never existed.!

Thats it, dig up the earth to save the environment!

For a start that wind farm will not generate energy for 2 million homes it is not big enough. To generate enough energy for 2million homes you would need around 350 turbines spread across 350 square miles. The biggest in the uk is Hornsea wind farm (Yorkshire) that is 300 turbines spread over 335 square miles. That is meant to power more than 2 million homes but it doesn’t even come close to that. So you have a wind farm more than ten times the size of Hull the area it’s meant to provide power to. An it’s not big enough and can’t provide the energy needed. Plus these wind farms are not environmental friendly, they damage wildlife, and it take about 30 years for them to break down once they have been decommissioned and left to the elements or buried to break down. How is that environmentally friendly? Plus the average wind speed in the uk, is above the max working speed of these turbines. Which is why when you look around the uk most of the time these wildlife killers called wind farms turbines are not working. The only environmentally green energy for the uk is wave energy, because the uk is an island. This was shown back in the 1970’s. If wave energy was used in the uk, they would pay for themselves within 2 years, giving energy so cheap it would be next to free. But as it’s rip off Britain they have gone with wind turbines, which damage wildlife, the environment and are a complete eyesore. An make the companies installing them billions and companies running them billions out of the people. An let’s not forget the when the wind farms cannot run the government pays them a million pound plus per day, so it’s a win win for them and a cost of high prices for the uk people.

The people of this area need to think about who they vote for in the GE!

Mobilization activities about to begin despite consent not YET being approved. Does anyone actually think they are worried about NOT getting approved ? They will find out the key people to talk to (bribe) and it will be business as usual.

The developers get automatic planning permission as ££££ talks. Houses have been built on fields that we all were told were green belt , at the council meeting we were told those fields were never green belt . Almost 8 years later they are still digging fields that we should be growing food on.I haven't seen a woodpecker or jay in my garden since the started the groundworks.

Thus the energy being produced by the offshore generators are just spinning in the wind. Where has it gone until now?

Don't forget we are paying for all this. From 1st April my standing charge on my electricity went up from £200 per year to £247 per year. I would advice everyone to look into our standing charges.

I live in this area, and it's bad enough with all the new houses that are ruining the local area, but to have this run through also is disgusting.. What a shame.. Hope they stop this like they did the FRACKING>

And how long before these are all sold of to foreign investors like evetything else built in England. 🇬🇧

Its not just Net zero its big business, we had a huge Evri (former Hermes) depot dubbed by Evri themselves as "Colossus" forced upon us without any true consultation (Hoyland common, Barnsley), the earth movers ripping up green belt land was the first we knew of it. Once the local community found out and disproved, all objections were ignored, all promises of lakeside walks and nature trails that would be part of the development have never come to fruition. All we have is a number of huge depots and trailer parks blighting the countryside with massively increased traffic numbers, nights that never get dark from the glow of floodlights from said depots and cheap labour bussed in from everywhere but the local area (foreign migrants), another broken promise of local work for local people. I feel for the residents of this soon to be destroyed community in Lancashire but unfortunately no matter what they do or say they will get steamrolled like we did because there are too many people in places of power taking back handers like our councillor (doesn't even live in the same county) that doesn't care for them or the village that these types of development ruin.

we keep building all these windfarms and solar farms however the national grid will not even cope with everything, surely we fix the national grid first? not advocating for net zero here 1 bit by the way I think its all a lie to line the pockets of a few.

In an appearance before Congress, Jennifer Granholm, Secretary of the U.S. Department of Energy, was repeatedly asked how much reduction in global temperatures would occur with a global expenditure of $9.6 trillion per year from 2025 through 2050. She repeatedly responded there is hope that the increase in global temperature would not exceed another 1.5 to 2 degrees by 2100. THAT IS THE EXACT PREDICTION IF WE DO NOTHING!!! Granholm is basically telling us that with or without efforts to reach Net-Zero the predicted increase in global temperature will be the same.

They wouldn't dare do this in the South

0:15 "... Residents say it would destroy green-belt land, close down businesses, and force people out of their homes ..." as intended. 2:48 "All feedback we have received has been considered to date and helped inform our design process. We understand that there are local concerns ..." but none of these people are wealthy enough to deserve special consideration.

I lived in San Diego county (California, USA). They forced a 212 mile ugly tower line from Mexico to feed power to Los Angeles. It was to our detriment. and did us no good, but we were billed for its construction by the corrupt power company.

Why r we throwing our money away trying to fight something....when we could be putting our money towards adapting to whatever may come our way?!

PROTEST THIS. DONT GIVE UP

There are other types of windmills as well. Even older than a 12th century postmill mud brick for reference.

What did these environmentalist think would happen if you start generating power in different locations to the current one's being used? If they think this is bad, there going to be in for a shock when they find out just about ever local power gind (the cables to your house) is going to need to be upgraded to handle the demand for Heat Pumps and car chargers in every home.

Quality of life must go down to meet the net zero initiative. You can't have it both ways pure and simple.

Tell me wind and solar are crap without telling me they're crap.! A Calm Night

This is not a "net zero" issue. There are a hundred things that could have caused this same sort of disruption. It is a rights and industrialization issue.

AVERAGE LIFE SPAN OF A WIND TURBINE: 22.5yrs. AVERAGE TIME TO OFF-SET CARBON EMISSIONS OF (1) WIND TURBINE CONSTRUCTED: 35yrs. BRILLIANT...

How much carbon is the construction of this corridor going to put into the atmosphere? Net zero is a pipe dream.

So explain this to me. You built a wind farm, but then later had to figure out how to connect it to the grid?? What kind of muppets do you have in charge over there?

In Australia we have not yet got to offshore wind turbines, just in rainforest instead. Then there is the 12000km of transmission lines to be built.

Well these are permanent. Alternating current as the wind farm output varies as the wind changes. A fracking drill site is temporary as when the gas gets extracted they seal them up and restore the environment back to what it was.

I have a beautiful farm in South Dakota on land formed by glaciers. There are many lake, rocky fields, and rolling farm land. About 12 years ago, windmills started popping up like mushrooms. It now looks like an industrial park with red glowing lights at night. This because of the lie about green energy and humans causing global warming which is unproven and politically motivated by greed. It sickens. They are destroying the planet to save it.

What a joke around the world the people have no choice because they can’t fight the money of the government

What a horrible scam this net zero is .

Total net zero bollochs. A waste of money and complete, unnecessary upheaval for no good reason
