Say 'Yes to Wind Power' in your area

Greenpeace has joined forces with Friends of the Earth and WWF to develop an interactive, pro-wind website. www.yes2wind.com has been developed to help you actively support the development of clean, renewable energy in your area.

The government is committed to producing 10%of the UK's electricity from renewable sources by 2010. Despite this step forward, many UK wind farm proposals are failing to get planning permission because of a small yet vocal minority. 75% of people in the UK support the development of wind power, but those speaking out against wind are being heard the most. You can help turn this around by logging onto www.yes2wind.com

The website is a great way to find out more about wind power and keep up to date with latest wind farm developments in and around your area. You can download posters, read weblogs and participate in message boards to put you in touch with other people who want to support local wind farms.

Promoting clean, renewable energy will continue to be a priority for Greenpeace over the coming months. We have already shown the government that wind power is a viable way to meet our energy needs. In order to ensure this becomes a reality we need our supporters and members of the public to voice their support.
