Scotland's wild places are full of energy
There are the thousands of people who live in rural communities in harmony with the land. There are the countless ramblers, climbers, cyclists, runners that enjoy respite and adventure in our precious wild places.
And, of course, there are the hundreds of wind turbines, pylons, and associated infrastructure that are producing so much energy that Scotland is now exporting electricity.
These windfarms are contributing to the nation's net zero objectives. But at what cost? Wild places, rural communities and those who visit for pleasure are paying the price, while massive energy companies line their pockets.
It's time to have an honest conversation about what is happening to the country's wildest landscapes.
The John Muir Trust believes there is a way forward that allows us to power the future and protect the wild.
