Country Guardian
List of
Updated January 2007
This list is been
compiled as a guide and reference to assist windfarm action groups to contact
each other. The number of these groups has reached 125 and is still
growing.
Many of the groups are
group members of Country Guardian and many have individual members who are also
CG members. However, it is important to emphasise that Country Guardian does
not have 'branches' and that all these groups are totally autonomous, having
been formed originally as a result of windfarm developments planned for their
local countryside. Country Guardian's role has been to research the impact of
windfarms and the arguments put forward to promote them, and make this
information available as widely as possible. Increasingly the groups are
building up a national and indeed international network, visiting each other
and exploiting email and Internet sites to communicate.
This list is published in
Openview, The Red Booklet Guide to UK Wind Farms, and on its Internet site: www.countryguardian.net
Please
contact the editor on 01494 680275, or michaelhird@tiscali.co.uk to correct
errors or add more groups.
