We had news in today about a planning application for twelve 120 metre high turbines on Oswaldtwistle Moor in Lancashire. This photograph of the Moor was sent to us by local Lancashire artist Catherine Kaufman.

Some Final Links:

Fred Pearce in the New Scientist

The Times Leading article "Not just Hot air"

Christopher Booker in the Sunday Telegraph

And finally, Ben Miller back on December 3rd in The Times, because he reminds us that it never was about saving the planet, just about saving our own skins:
Rebranding Gaia

There is nothing wrong, of course, in wanting to save humanity, but perhaps we should all be a little more humble about it.
