“But individual agreements on collective or common lands are not allowed, and that means the wind farms in Oaxaca are illegal,” said Sanchez.
He also alleged that the wind companies used entities in the U.S. dedicated to destroying movements to quell resistance, “We know that in the U.S. they conducted strategic projects about how to deactivate the movement of Popular Assembly of the People of Juchitan [a group created to bring together various communities and farmers to oppose the wind farms and other attacks on the land and territory]. We obtained the documents,” he said.
Celestino Bartolo was tricked by Naturgy. The company was only paying him 150 pesos per hectare per year to use his land. He ended that contract in 2007, but then the company built a wall of turbines around his land, and contaminates it with oil runoff and plastic packaging.Companies and the government trump up charges, persecute activists and issue death threats against any local resistance, he added.
Sanchez also accused the firms of dumping oil and rubbish on agricultural lands. Piedra Larga, a wind farm in Oaxaca, is owned by Grupo Bimbo, a Mexican multinational food company. It was built justmeters from homes. The turbines produce noise of 82 decibels, the blades drip oil onto the land and trees were cut down so the turbines could be erected.
Although wind farms are perceived as a sustainable source of energy, “they don’t just contaminate our lives, but also our way of living,” Sanchez said. “They removed a whole forest area in order to plant the metal turbines. How can they kill life and then pretend to argue for an ecological project?”
And takes drains waters from deep underground…
Incredible that how much free range corporations are allowed.
