Government watchdogs have not done their due diligence before rushing to approve big wind.
Suction buckets are a wind turbine foundation design that eliminates the need for those incredibly loud giant monopiles.
As environmental impact statements go, this one is a joke.
The National Academy of Sciences (NAS) released a lengthy report on what is known as the “dead ocean” threat with a focus on the Nantucket region, specifically what are called the Nantucket shoals.
Government regulators are industrializing our coast without understanding the danger to marine mammals, and CFACT's study shows the turbines don't even reduce CO2.
The Bureau of Ocean Energy Management and the National Marine Fisheries Service have violated federal law by finding that the Virginia Offshore Wind project will not result in the destruction of the North Atlantic right whale as a species.
