Area Residents Dislike Environment
Resident of villages near St Neots are up in arms about a proposed local wind farm – and say they’d much rather have a coal-fired power station instead.
“It’s a fuckin disgrace,” said Toseland man James Hague. “These lefty greeny loonies wanna build a load of wind turbines up on that there hill – exactly how is that gonna contribute to global warming?”
A recent survey showed that most residents of the group of small villages between St Neots and Huntingdon were uninformed about global warming, and generally thought warmer weather would be “a good thing”.
Gravely resident Sheila Sarms, 52, told the Citizen “I’ll be doing all I can to get a coal-fired power station built in the area, and perhaps some coal mines to go with it. An extra four degrees on the temperature and a beach in St Ives would be fantastic.”
Huntingdonshire Distric Council and Npower were all unavailable for comment.
