Once again the Invasive European Green Crabs miss the list!!! Unlike like Mikey of the Life Cereal commercials Green Crabs will eat anything!!!
It’s true as you add structure to Water-ways the currents will change… What was left out is the Artificial Reefs created by the Turbine Bases will make excellent habitat for these Invasive Green Crabs and whatever may relocate to these New habitats good and bad!!! Remember they’re talking Thousands of Turbines!!!

Development of the South Fork Wind Farm off the coast of Rhode Island would will have an overall “major” adverse impact on commercial fishing, according to a newly released federal study.,, No shit?!! Just move over! Between all the other space taking opportunists on the way to carpet the EEZ with industrial monuments, one would’ve expected more of a fight to defend against that. Of course, the best bought science will slide this in!
Offshore wind industry, the Taliban of the North Atlantic.
