CONSERVATIONIST and broadcaster David Bellamy has threatened to chain himself to a wind turbine in Cumbria to protest against plans for what would be the country’s biggest windfarm.
Bellamy was among hundreds of people who took to the fells yesterday to protest against plans for some of the tallest turbines ever planned for England.
Opponents of the planned Whinash windfarm near Tebay claim the turbines will be clearly visible from some of the Lake District’s most popular peaks.
Cumbrian peer Lord Melvyn Bragg, mountaineer Sir Chris Bonnington are also against the proposals.
Stephen Molloy, project manager for Renewable Development Company Ltd, which is promoting the scheme, said something had to be done to create new sources of cleaner energy.
