Melville Gates Works, Fife have applied for Planning to extend their Quarry operations on the outskirts of Ladybank, Fife. This new extension involves the removal of some 40 acres of beautiful, mature woodland and its inhabitants (Red Squirrel, Pipestrelle Bat, Deer and other species). Forestry Commision Scotland are in agreeance to this project, going against their own mission statement and their "Climate Change Action Plan 2008 - 2010" (no deforestation). Apart from these factors, there will be substantially more heavy traffic on the A92, and disruption to nearby residents of noise, dust and vibration for the 7 years of operations. PLEASE SIGN THE PETITION TO HELP STOP THIS APPLICATION BEING APPROVED. Thank you.

August 12, 2008

The Forestry Commission continues to ignore their own climate promises while this quarry plan moves forward. Call your local Fife representative today and demand they block the destruction of this woodland. Post this link on Facebook so our neighbors know exactly what is coming for the A92.

The scale of this response proves that our community will not sit by while our local woodland is destroyed. Post the link to your Facebook feed today and email your local representative to demand they block this quarry expansion.

Please protect our countryside. Once those trees are gone they arent coming back.

Disgraceful. Red squirrels are rare enough as it is. Leave them alone!

Keep our woods for the kids, not more quarrying. enough is enough with these companies taking everything for profit.

The A92 is already a nightmare to drive on. We dont need more lorries clogging it up every single day.
