Very sad to read this. I know Falmouth well after many summer holidays there as a kid and returns as an adult. All the preserved charm of the place will be lost, not to mention the disaster this will be for local ecology.

I was born in Falmouth and though I am rarely there now it has a precious place in my heart. And I recognise the enormous wildlife value of the whole Fal estuary. This is an absolute desecration. You only have to look at the Teesside disaster to see potential consequences. Stop it NOW
