Saint-Senier-en Beuvron, the tiny village blocking the way for Elon Musk

Noemi Brault, councilor of Saint-Senier-de-Beuvron: The municipality of Saint-Senier and in particular the municipal council apply a precautionary principle with regard to this project. The main question we have concerns the impact on the local population, the agglomeration as a whole and the environment. There are only 350 inhabitants in the tiny village of Saint-Senier-en Beuvron, in the French Manche department, near Mont Saint-Michel, but they are extremely determined not to let high-tech magnate Eleon Musk off the field. Especially the satellite field: it is there that, in the war for dominance over fast satellite transmissions in France, the company Starlink, owned by the Californian billionaire, should build nine big white spheres 3 metres high by 5 metres wide. But the tiny village - 350 inhabitants - does not intend to passively accept the decision. Saint-Senier-en Beuvron, 17th of February, 2021.
