Fighting Against Large Commercial Wind Turbines
Farlington is a small picturesque village situated in North Yorkshire.
Sadly, Farlington and neighbouring villages face the prospect of being overshadowed by one or more giant, commercial, wind turbines of up to 130 metres (over 400 feet) in height.
Farlington Wind-turbine Action Group (F WAG) comprises a number of local residents determined to fight against the construction of such monsters.

The proposed, giant wind turbine near Farlington may not go ahead because of possible interference with MOD radar
We are very supportive of green energy initiatives but see little benefit from land-based giant wind turbines.
These are inefficient, noisy and spoil the beauty of the countryside and the pleasure enjoyed by local residents and many visitors to this part of England.
Furthermore, there is growing evidence of potential health hazards to people living nearby large wind-turbines and there is a real danger to local wildlife.
