Express reports growing fury over Peak Cluster plans
The Daily Express reported on mounting public anger surrounding the proposed Peak Cluster carbon capture pipeline, highlighting fears that large areas of Wirral countryside and coastline could be heavily impacted by the scheme. The article focused on concerns from residents, campaigners, and local politicians who believe the project could industrialise rural areas and damage wildlife habitats.
Critics described the plans as turning Wirral into “England’s carbon dioxide exhaust pipe”, while also questioning the long-term safety and environmental consequences of transporting captured CO2 through densely populated areas. Supporters of the project continue to argue that carbon capture is necessary to help decarbonise the cement and lime industries and meet national climate targets.

ITV News explains growing opposition to Peak Cluster
ITV News published a detailed explainer outlining the proposed Peak Cluster carbon capture pipeline and the growing concerns being raised by residents across Wirral and Cheshire. The project would transport captured carbon dioxide from cement and lime works in Derbyshire through a 160-mile pipeline to storage sites beneath the East Irish Sea, with major infrastructure planned near Meols and Hoylake.
The report highlighted widespread public opposition centred around environmental impact, safety concerns, effects on wildlife and greenbelt land, and frustration over the consultation process. Thousands of residents have signed petitions against the project, while councillors from multiple political parties have criticised the plans and called for greater scrutiny. Supporters of the scheme argue it is essential for achieving UK net zero targets and protecting jobs in heavy industry.

West Kirby Live returns to support AACCS
West Kirby Live is set to return this summer, with organisers confirming the music festival will once again help raise awareness and funds in opposition to the proposed Peak Cluster carbon capture pipeline. The event will take place across multiple venues in West Kirby and is expected to feature a range of local artists and community support.
Organisers said they felt they had “no choice” but to continue campaigning against the project, which has generated significant local concern around environmental impact, industrialisation, and disruption along the proposed pipeline route. The festival aims to combine live music with activism, bringing together residents and campaign groups opposed to the development.
