Misinformation: Offshore wind isn’t killing whales. Big oil and gas just want you to think it is.

While ocean conservation organizations and scientists are raising the alarm about how climate change is harming whales, lobbyist groups, online news outlets, and conservative representatives have found a convenient scapegoat for these whale deaths: offshore wind farms. Self-styled “grassroots” groups like Protect Our Coast New Jersey, Save Our Beach View, Nantucket Residents Against Turbines, and the American Coalition for Ocean Protection claim that the technology used in the surveying phase of offshore wind farm development is killing whales — without any supporting evidence. Indeed, representatives from NOAA Fisheries, a bioacoustics expert at the University of Southern Denmark, and scientists at the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management are all on the record stating that there are no known ties between offshore wind and whale deaths. >click to read< 15:29

    Your analysis is ridiculous, Mr. CAP. For you to sit in Phil Murphys lap like a little puppy barking, as his subjects organize in protest of the death of the marine mammals along their shores, you praise the agencies everyone in the fisheries is skeptical of through interaction and regulation crucifixion. The citizens are just learning about them now, and are rightfully skeptical also, as these agencies blow off their concerns of the cost of wildlife for ocean industrialization. I clicked some of your links and joyfully recognized some familiar faces that you have chosen to besmirch and capitalize upon to validate your invalid opinion. You should actually listen to them. You might learn something.

    Good morning. I was notified there was a problem posting a comment that was forwarded for submission. BH.
    Joel Hovanesian – One question Mr. Freeman, who’s buttering your bread? To turn a blind eye to the destruction that is going on in your own backyard is despicable. But frankly I’m not surprised. To Carry the water and spout the bullshit coming from the pie holes of these despicable money grubbing prostitutes is appalling.
    There’s a saying I’m sure you are familiar with….Follow the money. Here’s another saying, if you don’t stand for something, you’ll fall for anything. It’s quite obvious that you and those like you who would destroy an ecosystem that feeds the planet claiming to do so to save the planet, have fallen for the biggest scam in history.
