In one corner, clean energy champion Ed Miliband. In the other, residents – and Reform politicians – outraged at plans for more large-scale solar farms in Lincolnshire than anywhere else in the UK
What the article completely misses to mention is that solar companies will obviously pay taxes which is a lot of money for the communities where these projects are built.
Like, every community wants to have big companies building solar parks in their area sothat they get a lot of extra money in taxes. The tax money can be a big help to rural communities. That’s what people need to talk more about.
It’s sad to see the biggest argument to convince people that solar in their vicinity is a good thing unused. Why did the writers of the article not talk about it? Why were they unwilling to take effective action by asking the right questions? Why is the “but how do you not want extra tax money for your local school project” question not asked to everybody who was interviewed?
