In #Arnish, #Scotland, a massive electricity transmission hub is set to harm or destroy 83% of local #biodiversity, wipe out nationally important #peatlands, and threaten #MarineLife, all in the name of "progress" (greenwashing alert!).

Peatlands are terrestrial wetland #ecosystems, one of the best natural defences against the #ClimateCrisis, yet they’re being sacrificed for industrial expansion.

πŸ¦…

Why do governments keep prioritising corporate greed over the ecosystems we all depend on?

This isn’t just a local issue, it’s a global problem. If we allow this destruction to continue, where will it stop?

The #developers themselves are fully aware of the devastating impacts their project could unleash on the #MarineEcosystem.

The #seabed disturbance from #trenching and #turbine foundations could destroy essential #SpawningGrounds for #herring and #SandEels, further destabilising the fragile marine #FoodWeb.
