Re: Risks To Thousands of Acres of Protected Land

It is the people that grant planning permission who are to blame
they have no understanding of the overall requirements of an ecology.
They watch TV programmes such as Spring-Watch with their children,
and think all is well ,it will not matter if we dig up those usless fields
there are no animals to cause a fuss over.In their ignorance not realising
that the invertabrates in that field are the food chain for birds and mammals
for about 3 kilometers around
There should be compulsary training for these ignorant people,not just "advice"
from "consultants" which they ignore because they pay them (and have no respect for their advice)
