🏆 Why This Matters

🌳 Countryside Saved – Thousands of acres of open land spared from industrialisation.

🍞 Food Security Protected – Prime farmland stays in food production, not covered in glass.

🐦 Wildlife Habitat Safe – Hedgerows, wetlands & nature corridors remain intact.

⚡ Grid Reality Won – Another unworkable mega-scheme stopped before wasting millions.

1000’s of acres saved

🗣 We Called It Out

The developer claimed it would make a “significant contribution to climate commitments” 🌍
But they ignored:

🚫 Local community opposition

🚫 Loss of productive farmland

🚫 Regional grid overload

🚫 Better, greener alternatives like rooftop solar & SMRs

🔥 The Lesson

When communities stand together, we win 💪
This proves:

🛑 Not every project is inevitable

🛑 Evidence beats slogans

🛑 We CAN protect our land & our future
📢 Next Steps

✅ Push for Rooftop & Brownfield First policies

✅ Demand UK-made clean energy solutions

✅ Expose every unworkable greenfield energy grab

💬 Your voice matters. Your action counts.
Today it’s Tween Bridge. Tomorrow, it could be YOUR countryside.
