UK public are being asked to log on as campaigners fight for clean energy

Green groups have launched a website that calls on people to join the campaign to increase the amount of energy supplied by wind power in the UK. The groups are so concerned by misinformation about wind power which is circulating on the internet that they have joined forces to launch www.yes2wind.com Environmentalists say the technology can boost jobs and tourism while fighting climate change - the world's biggest environmental problem.

Say 'Yes to Wind Power' in your area

Greenpeace has joined forces with Friends of the Earth and WWF to develop an interactive, pro-wind website. www.yes2wind.com has been developed to help you actively support the development of clean, renewable energy in your area.

The government is committed to producing 10%of the UK's electricity from renewable sources by 2010. Despite this step forward, many UK wind farm proposals are failing to get planning permission because of a small yet vocal minority. 75% of people in the UK support the development of wind power, but those speaking out against wind are being heard the most. You can help turn this around by logging onto www.yes2wind.com
