Letters / Time to fight

In support of Martin Heubeck’s recent letter (Happy to contribute; SN 11/2/13), I too have contributed what I can afford towards Sustainable Shetland’s legal costs – it really is a case of ‘putting one’s money where one’s mouth is’.

Folk digging deep are seriously concerned about these beautiful islands and the devastational impact the monstrous Viking Energy scheme would have.

If it takes drawing attention to threatened bird species to stop the planned carnage – then go for it!

This is a situation where we cannot afford to stand back, let ‘someone else’ contribute, let ‘someone else’ do all the campaigning – it’s a time to fight and that takes time and money.

Well done Sustainable Shetland!
