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.

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 project will harm or wipe out 83% of local #biodiversity.

#Peatlands are crucial for fighting #ClimateChange, yet they are being sacrificed for #industrial expansion.

authorities are prioritising #profit over #preservation.

The construction will damage intertidal habitats, affecting seals, otters, and coastal-foraging birds, with no clear mitigation plan.

Once again, instead of protecting the few wild spaces remaining, authorities are prioritising profit over preservation

It's a disaster for the #climate and #biodiversity.

This project us being sold as part of the UK's energy transition, but the truth is:
It's a disaster for the climate and biodiversity.
If we allow this destruction to continue in one id Europe's most fragile ecosystems, where will it stop?

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

The developers themselves are fully aware of the devastating impacts their project could unleash on the marine ecosystem: underwater noise will disrupt the lives of whales, dolphins, and porpoises, including the endangered harbour porpoise.

While seabirds face the threat of deadly collisions and forced displacement.

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