PTHE ENTIRE ISAND of Anglesey is an international Geo Park with UNESCO status. This is highly important and something which should be celebrated and protected. There are more that 100 rock types on the island. The eminent geologist [redacted] recently stated that she doesn’t know of anywhere in the world where such diversity is present in such a small area.This invaluable asset should bring in visitors from across the globe but pylons will detract from this resource and deter visitors.

The Welsh Government is currently looking to include Goeparks in Planning Policy Wales and states that:-

“Planning Authorities should protect the features and qualities for which Geoparks and RIGS HAVE BEEN DESIGNATED, and are encouraged to promote opportunities for the incorporation of geological features within the design and development, particularly where relevant evidence emerges as part of Green Infrastructure Assessment “

I believe that National Grid’s proposal will destroy parts of the Geopark. Once it has gone millions of years of geological heritage will be gone for ever.
