No birdie for golfing billionaire as watchdog bristles at golf course plans
Description
Every week, the ENDS team enters the ECO Chamber to discuss the UK’s biggest green news stories and bring you up to speed on the latest developments in environmental policy.
This week, Eco Chamber host James Agyepong-Parsons speaks with senior reporter Shosha Adie about a proposed golf course in the Scottish Highlands which one watchdog says has habitat-killing potential.
The proposed Couls Link Golf Course at Embo in East Sutherland is backed by billionaire Mike Keiser, business rival of US president Donald Trump. However, in a new setback for developers NatureScot has called for an outright objection to the scheme. What will this mean for the golf course plans?
PLUS: UK Butterfly populations continue their downward spiral, why the chancellor wants a new planning bill, and the legal action launched against a minister’s ‘irrational’ data centre EIA decision.
