Remove wind turbines too close to homes in South Wales.

What the petition asks
Nantymoel is a coal mining Valley forgotten about by governments local and centrally having closed the mines. That is until it was thought to be a good idea to erect 125 metre high turbines unbelievably too close to our homes.
Although abundant land is available to have sited them out of sight and earshot, our quality of life was deemed to be less important than a few mega watts of incredibly expensive wind power. There are well over a hundred of them in the very near vicinity. Once wonderful vistas are now more akin to an industrial area. We were not consulted, every single objection presented by the local council on behalf of the residents were dismissed by the planners. Come and see for yourself, where next?
Why it was rejected
It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.
