#Whitelee

@neald Absolutely! Very near #Glasgow is the massive onshore #Whitelee #windfarm . The developers had the brilliant idea of including a visitor centre/cafe and encouraging people to visit the site to make use of the tracks between the #turbines for #walking, #gravelbiking and #running. It's massively popular which proves that most people actually really like wind farms! #windpower #energy

@TCMuffin @MadeyeTheCarnaptious @JackTheCat What is brilliant about #Whitelee is that they built a big visitor centre at the same time, as well as promoting the 130km+ of trails for walking, cycling & nature appreciation. Whitelee is consequently a destination of choice for local people, & not seen as a horrible wind farm such as anti-wind energy proponents campaign against.

Snow laden foreground with footprints leading towards wind turbines under a dramatic sky.

Our local windfarm just happens to be one of Europe's biggest, hundreds of turbines quietly doing their work to keep us warm. It has a bleak beauty, especially in winter.
