    Petition to British Prime Minister

    “We petition the Prime Minister to Stop erecting wind turbines. 1000 tonnes of concrete is required to install each turbine. Concrete production is the second most polluting industrial process in the world. Wind turbines produce a low and unreliable source of power that cannot be relied upon, so conventional power stations are kept running as backup anyway. Wind Turbines are noisy and spoil our landscape. Please prevent any more from being installed.”
    Sign the petition at 10 Downing St’s E-Petition site: . . .
