"Costing the Earth" is a series of radio programmes which looks at:
"...man's effect on the environment and how the environment reacts, questioning accepted truths, challenging those in charge and reporting on progress towards improving the world"
The first programme in the current series of nine programmes was broadcast yesterday and was entitled, "Turbines and Tearooms"; it considered the reasons for opposition to 'Green Energy' Developments.
One academic interviewee made the comment:
"Developers need to think about the fact that in the main people don't trust them, they don't trust them at all"
This was just one of many comments made in this fascinating and very easy to listen to programme which spent quite a lot of time considering a proposed development in the village of Northiam.
