RSPB Scotland: "A development that will kill tens of thousands of seabirds over its lifetime and push species like Kittiwakes and Puffins closer to extinction in Scotland is unsupportable on every level." #BerwickBank #NetZero #WindFarm #seabirds #Edinburgh 🏴

The go-ahead for #BerwickBank is a death knell for thousands of seabirds. With many already in crisis, it must be stopped. Please support the letter-writing campaign.

We’ve united with nature charities across Scotland call on the First Minister to stop #BerwickBank. If progressed it could be the deadliest windfarm for birds on the planet.
Green energy is essential for the #climatecrisis, but not at this huge ecological cost↙️

Scotland just approved one of the world’s biggest offshore wind farms—right next to Trump’s golf course.
The “ugly monsters” he raged about will now power millions of homes.

A bad news week for Gannets: NatureScot backs a Guga hunt, and the world’s largest wind farm gets the green light near Bass Rock. For tradition and renewables, is it worth sacrificing an already vulnerable population?
#Gannets #Conservation #Renewables #seabirds #BerwickBank
When complete it will be one of the biggest offshore windfarms in the world, standing at a capacity of 4.1GW, enough to power more than six million homes each year ⚡ 🏠 🌍
