Plans to build wind farms next to a South African national park have riled wildlife activists who worry the turbines will ruin the landscape and impact elephants. More than 200 turbines are slated to be erected in the vicinity of the Addo Elephant National Park, in the country's south, after the Environment Ministry dismissed a legal bid to block the project last year.
The appeal lodged against a controversial wind farm to be built on the boundary of the Addo Elephant National Park has been rejected by environment minister Barbara Creecy.
