Woodland Trust disappointed by decision to approve T in the Park
Reacting to today's decision to approve the T in the Park music festival, Carol Evans, director of the Woodland Trust Scotland said:
"We're disappointed by the decision to approve T in the Park, which demonstrates a disregard for the impacts on the woodland surrounding Strathallan Estate. This long established woodland is home to a number of species including bats, red squirrels and ospreys.
"While we are not against the festival, these woods are too valuable for wildlife to hold an event of this size in such close proximity due to impacts including artificial light, noise and litter."
