Protect Wentworth Valley is a dedicated coalition of concerned citizens, including local residents and interested parties, committed to preserving the natural beauty and environmental integrity of the Wentworth Valley. The group is actively opposing proposed industrial wind turbine developments that threaten the area. Among the projects under scrutiny is a significant 100MW site on Higgins Mountain, set to feature 18 towering turbines, each reaching 190 meters in height, significantly impacting the region's landscape.

The Wentworth Valley is not only a vital ecosystem but also a beloved outdoor recreation hub, offering diverse activities like hiking, biking, skiing, and fishing. Protect Wentworth Valley recognizes the importance of renewable energy but questions the appropriateness of industrial wind projects in this unique setting. Their mission focuses on safeguarding the valley's natural resources, ensuring that future developments benefit both local communities and the broader Nova Scotia population while providing a framework for other communities facing similar concerns. By promoting environmental protection, they aim to enhance health and wellness through sustainable outdoor experiences.
