Climate scientists say global carbon dioxide emissions must peak and begin to decline in the next 10 years if we are to prevent the worst effects of climate change.

Wind power is the best developed renewable technology we have to reduce emissions right now.

Press for change

Friends of the Earth groups are backing windfarms around the country. 

If you live locally you can make a difference by supporting these projects:
