Wind Of Change

Here's a rather wonderful wee film.

I've mentioned Fintry before, the village in Scotland that, instead of fighting a proposed windfarm nearby, decided to ask the developers if they could buy one of the turbines. The developers agreed, the windfarm was built, and the local community is now benefiting from the money generated.

This short film shows how the turbine money has spurred the uptake of other renewable and sustainable initiatives throughout Fintry. Grab your popcorn and enjoy!
