In light of what happened in Nantucket this week I wanted to take a moment to remind folks that this is just the beginning. Large multinational corporations, in conjunction with their political ally’s are purchasing leasing rights for millions of acres - virtually the entire upper US seaboard. Here is a map of proposed and in many cases approved projects. Some of which are being built as we speak. @RevWind This is already am unmitigated disaster and will only get worse as we literally put thousands more windmills all along the coast. These windmills kill whales and sea life, disturb and disrupt fishing and sea farming - greatly impacting our food supply, destroy bird migration patterns, block navy radar, pose an environmental risk when toxic blades break into the ocean or when one catches fire, they destroy the beauty of our oceans impacting tourism and property values, they require energy from the existing grid To function, provide intermittent power (40% of time ), costs 2-10x more than existing energy and all this for no meaningful reduction in co2 emissions per @BOEM Now more than ever- Offshore wind is all pain and no gain! Stop the destruction before it’s too late. #saveourcoast #ocean #oceans #offshorewind #wind #GreenEnergy #Renewables #RhodeIsland #newport #littlecompton #aquidneckisland #Middletown #portsmouth #marinemammals #fishing #fightsalty #saltwaterfishing #commercialfishing #cod #northatlanticrightwhale @SenWhitehouse @DanMcKeeRI @SethMagaziner @repmorgan @TheNewportDaily @projo @bostonherald @RIHouseofReps @windwisema @StopTheseThings @TurbineIssues @NewportBuzz @JoeShekarchi @TheStonesEG @AllanFungRI @SaveTheBayRI @stofbw @windwatchorg @repmorgan @deadturbines @ACKCurrent @Congressman_JVD @NormanBirdS @saveLBIorg @McKay_Senate @ack4whales @GreenOceansRI @projo @JohnEDeaton1 @GerryCallahan @MikeyAdams420 @HowieCarrShow @Newport_PresSoc @SpeakerJohnson @TedNesi @ChrisMartzWX @rigopncw @AntiWuCoalition @WCVB
