Opposition to Carnoustie biodigester plant

Opposition to Carnoustie biodigester plant

There are the first stirrings of unrest in Carnoustie about a planning application for an anaerobic biodigester plant.

For those of you who have only heard of such a thing on the Archers, this is a plant that uses organic material to produce gas.

If approved, it would be built at the east end of Carlogie Woods.

In The Courier on Thursday, Charles Lloyd puts his case against the plant and calls for Angus Council and local councillors to refuse the application.

Bob Taylor of Glenrothes does his sums and argues that Fife’s threatened libraries can be saved.

There is plenty of money sloshing about in the Kingdom to keep them open, he says.

Luncarty man Roger Ward reports from Seattle where the council is using goats to keep public land tiday. And some claim the UK is a nanny state.

Another correspondent claims parents should not be trusted to teach their children while a Fife writer points to the benefit farmers bring to Scotland.

Perth writer Gordon Kennedy makes an interesting observation. He believes shoppers should not be made to feel guilty by refusing to donate a pound to charities at checkouts.

There has been little in the way of Jeremy Corbyn-related so far this week save from on unsigned email suggesting the new leader’s strong left-wing credentials will improve the party’s showing in Scotland.

All in The Courier tomorrow.
