SAY NO TO THE DARC.








































SIGN THE PETITION






























WE ARE PEMBROKESHIRE. AND WE STAND AGAINST THE RADAR.


The 'United States Space Force'—one of Donald Trump's many 'big-brain genius'
inventions—has proposed one of the most health-hazardous, tourism-ruining,
skyline-blighting military installations ever proposed anywhere in the UK: a
gigantic 27-dish radar network, named DARC, in the heart of our St. Davids
peninsula.

The DARC radars proposed, as tall and wide as multi-storey buildings, would
cumulatively produce radiation so powerful that scientific studies show the
array would undoubtedly be unsafe for human residential habitation.


IT GETS WORSE.

The US military’s submitted scoping plans go as far as to report, specifically,
that they are trying to build a radar installation that would literally tower
over the very skylines of Newgale beach and Solva harbour themselves. Shocked
enough yet?


IT GETS WORSE-ER.

If this were not enough, a lack of clarity concerning the micrositing and
radar-to-radar distance requirements of the plans actually reveals not only that
the gigantic radars would span over a staggering kilometre (10 football pitches)
of space, but could even stretch over the very horizon of St Davids Airfield and
the Preseli mountains itself.

ENTER PARC AGAINST DARC.



































In early 1990, faced with an over-the-horizon radar array that involved plans
almost identical to DARC today, local residents in Whitchurch, Solva and St.
Davids banded together to create PARC: Pembrokeshire Against the Radar
Campaign—and by 1991, after a campaign that became so viral and national that it
ended with then Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher herself being forced to cancel
the radar project, PARC won, and defeated the entire radar programme.

Well now for the great news. PARC is back, baby. We're here with a new
generation, a new purpose, and a fight we are ready to win.

Here in Pembrokeshire, we have always been a people who have stood up for our
land at the moment when it matters. We took on the MOD, we defeated the US
military, and with your help, we can, and we will, make DARC history.


THE PEOPLE STOOD TOGETHER THEN. IT'S TIME TO STAND TOGETHER NOW!

DARC: IT'S NOT JUST WRONG FOR PEMBROKESHIRE. IT'S WRONG FOR EVERYWHERESHIRE.

Public health

DARC’s combined radiation levels would be completely inappropriate for the
residential area of Pembrokeshire


Peer-reviewed scientific research studies done in the UK, the US, Rome and South
Korea (to name just a few) are part of a body of thousands of studies that show
one thing: people living in closer proximity to high-frequency, high power
density radiofrequency radiation sources (just like DARC) are at a significantly
and consistently increased risk of cancer, especially leukaemia.

Even the US military responsible for DARC itself has had to admit it: both in
the form of its own studies of its personnel contracting cancer while operating
radar equipment, and in all the compensation it has been forced to pay its
victims.

But that’s only the start. The intensively construction-heavy process of
building an unprecedentedly gigantic 27-dish radar farm also threatens to
disturb and pollute the groundwater with decades of military-grade
contamination, including radon, uranium and Strontium-90, buried in the ground
of the Brawdy base.

And with the very private water company responsible for the base’s water showing
a track record of having to say sorry for polluting the very drinking water of
residents close to other MOD military bases with contaminants the MOD have
refused to specify, we can be clear about one thing:

DARC radar is the disaster waiting to not happen.

Tourism, environment and economy

DARC’s huge radars would be visible everywhere, permanently ruining the
atmosphere, environment and property values of Pembrokeshire


Sick bags at the ready: take a quick look in this section at our mock-up photos
of what 27 radars over an entire kilometre would do to the skylines for Newgale,
Solva, Whitesands, Penycwm, Roch, Treffgarn Owen, Llandeloy and Treffynnon—just,
maybe, leave it a few hours after lunch!

And then there’s the 100 jobs, which are only 60 jobs at any one time, which are
mostly for American specialists and not locals, which are actually part of a
massive 300 job loss… that actually turns out to be… a huge job cut. Sounds…
great?

Instead of job losses, though, at PARC we have a much better idea for the base
they’re leaving behind. Brawdy Enterprise Park was formed the last time the
military left Brawdy, and business is booming.

Why not make the soon empty Brawdy base a huge hub for inspiring new local
business, increasing prosperity and tourism income—instead of axing both with
DARC?

That would be another way of better protecting the huge range of animal and
plant species in and around the Brawdy site, some of them rare and highly
notable, whose place to live and thrive as part in our community and ecology
DARC radar would turn into yet more ghost habitats in a world where we need the
total opposite to happen.

Read on to see the pics, and discover how we fight back!



Global security

Most countries agree: the US domination of space DARC is for is a fading,
colonial era vision that makes our changing world less, not more safe


DARC, a space scanning system the US wants to use to attack other nations’
satellites in space, is not just the latest pointless sabre-rattling vanity
project aimed at entirely optional space expansionism Washington is trying to
palm the UK (and Pembrokeshire) off with.

Aside from being a piece of international aggression most of the world’s nations
in the UN have been voting against, DARC also, by threatening to create
dangerous amounts of space debris, creates a unique risk.

The satellites it is designed to provide targeting for the destruction of,
scientists are urgently warning, could easily lead to a deadly global chain
reaction-induced cloud of obliterated satellite debris so huge it could prevent
humanity from going back to space for potentially decades.

The clueless US, which in its scoping report refers to St Davids and Swansea as
‘the nearest towns’ (really?), seems to think we’re just a bunch of random
farmsteads that don’t matter here in Dewisland, and not a populated area, and
one of Wales’s most key pieces of tourist infrastructure. And we’re here to give
it the memo.
