I am a local elected representative, and this issue is deeply personal to me. The proposed solar farm, between Easton Maudit and Mears Ashby, in our community is on an unprecedented scale that could have significant impacts on our local environment and way of life. While we recognize the importance of renewable energy sources for a sustainable future, it's crucial to balance these needs with preserving our community's character.

This Solar farm if allowed to go ahead in its current scale will be the largest in the UK and the ultimate decision maker is the Secretary of State and not your locally elected representatives.

The sites identified by the developer are potentially 40 times greater than the one that is nearing completion at Gipsy Lane Irchester. 

Our community deserves a say in how we transition to renewable energy sources. We should be able to choose solutions that respect our environmental concerns while still meeting energy goals

Therefore, we urge decision-makers involved in this project to reconsider its scale and impact on our community. Let us work together towards a solution that benefits everyone - one that embraces clean energy without compromising the integrity of our local environment.

Please sign this petition if you believe in balanced progress towards sustainable living and a reduction in the sheer scale of these plans
