“I find it
frustrating, as a lay person, to find answers to technical questions. You see
gigantic wind turbines appearing all over the country, but there is very little
about the practical value of these monstrosities…..When will common sense and
good science prevail and what happens if it does not fairly soon?”
Letter
from HRH Prince Philip to Professor Plimer, 29th April 2018.
This book
attempts to answer the questions raised by the late Duke of Edinburgh.
