Trump golf course raided by protestors as chaos | Golf News

Environmental activists erected a makeshift “wind farm” at one of Donald Trump’s Scottish golf programs in a demonstration opposing his resistance to wind energy.

Greenpeace reported that golfers arriving at Trump Turnberry in Ayrshire found model wind generators positioned on the 4th inexperienced, accompanied by a placard stating “Choose wind, dump Trump.”

Lily‐Rose Ellis, a climate campaigner for Greenpeace UK, said: “Donald Trump wants to keep us as lifetime members of his golf club, where every time he starts an illegal war, bills go through the roof while his fossil fuel backers make billions.”

She continued: “But we don’t need to stay stuck in his sand trap – the renewables Trump hates are the best insurance policy against the chaos he’s unleashed. Wind and solar farms built since the start of the Ukraine war have saved us seven million pounds every day since Trump attacked Iran and drove gas prices back up again. More clean energy that doesn’t rely on the Strait of Hormuz or Russian pipelines can save us money, boost our security and tackle climate change. It’s a hole in one.”
