Should a Wind Turbine be Built on Hackney Marshes


This week Hackney Council launched a consultation on whether or not to use part of Hackney Marshes for the construction of a wind turbine. 


If this massive project goes ahead, it will make a considerable contribution toward reducing Hackney’s carbon emissions.  It will also provide green energy for the borough for the next 25 years and, rent from the for the land the turbine would sit on could be invested in sports and playing facilities on the Marshes.


Anyone can respond to the consultation so if want to have your say on whether this project should go ahead, click here.
