Stop building Solar Farms on Farm Land
Rejected
9 signatures
What the petition asks
Stop developers putting solar panels on agricultural land. There's plenty of roof space in the UK. All factories, warehouses and other large buildings should be installed with them. We need the farm land to produce food for the nation and stop the importing of products.
It's not a green solution if it's increasing the amount of products being shipped to this country. Also who wants to look at fields of solar panels.
