Impact of wind energy programme on health is open to debate

As outlined in the letters page of August 15, Val Martin is as entitled as any other citizen to use his vote at election time to oppose what he calls the “scourge” of the “wind energy programme”.

But what the effect of that wind energy programme is, in relation to what Martin refers to as “the health impact on residents” and the “impact on the environment”, is open to debate.

When s/he says that the proponents of the programme “show no willingness to engage in the democratic process”, s/he is not stating facts.
