Offshore Wind May Not Reduce CO2 Emissions

June 1, 2023 by

2

By David Wojick, Ph.D. ~ There is a common assumption that offshore wind electricity generation greatly reduces CO2 emissions. In fact this is the primary justification for the horrendous cost and adverse impact of these offshore megaprojects. As with many green assumptions, this may well be false. First, given the way power generation actually works […]

Is Dominion’s Offshore Wind Project ‘Arbitrary And Capricious’? NOAA Says YES!

May 28, 2023 by

3

By Collister Johnson ~ Recently, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) has been issuing a raft of “Incidental Harassment Authorizations” (IHA) to offshore wind developers.

How Much Wind Killing Do We Want?

May 11, 2023 by

2

By David Wojick, Ph.D. ~ That rapidly growing wind power development kills birds in ever increasing numbers is clear. That it also kills whales and other marine mammals is becoming clear. So the policy question is how much killing is enough, before we stop killing more? This question seems not to be asked. The stampede […]
