Support the No Turbine Action Group

Colorado Trout Unlimited, families from Tasmania, and some of Australia’s gifted fly tyers have come together to give you a chance of winning one or more prizes.

Help Keep Tasmania’s Highlands Unique

The No Turbine Action Group Inc (NTAG) is fighting to save a large unique area in the Tasmanian Highlands (home of the threatened Wedge-tailed Eagle) from being destroyed by a massive wind farm planned by Korea Zinc. World-renowned Penstock Lagoon sits on the boundary of the project and is visited by thousands of Australian and international fly fishermen every year.

The No Turbine Action Group Inc (NTAG) is a broad-based community organisation that supports renewable energy projects but believes that the proposed St Patricks Plains wind farm in the Highlands is in the wrong place. Click here to view their concerns.
