Report to the Citizens´Group: "Schmarloh without wind industry"
To what big and unrevisable landscape aesthetic deletions the erection of offshore windfarms can lead, had already been discussed before the so called “Energiewende” (energy change). In 2004, when the following expert report had been written, the cornerstones of landscape politics, which originally was called upon to fight against the continuous loss of landscape, were already thoughtlessly given up so far as offshore wind energy projects were concerned. The protection of the outer (rural) zones of our communities against detremental building projects and the preservation of bigger uncut landscape areas in Germany were treated by national and federal energy politics - conceptless and reactive in the question of future energy provision from the very beginning - as principles to be neglected consequently in the case of the expansion of the wind energy.
