New Hampshire has about 18 miles of coast along the Atlantic Ocean. The port of Portsmouth, still a working port, much to the chagrin of the new residents there, leads into the Great Bay and Little Bay watershed. Over the years, it has seen its share of controversy.
What could possibly be causing an uptick in marine deaths related to Offshore Wind farms? Many factors may disrupt marine life, including noise, vibration, sonar, and more, many of which we are not aware of. Let’s scratch the surface of some of the data.
The Biden administration aims to establish 30 gigawatts of offshore wind power on U.S. coasts by 2030 and has put half a billion into just Offshore Wind—with a focus primarily on the East Coast.
Since February 29, 2024, 10 whales have washed up on eastern seaboard shores. Two humpbacks in Virginia on 3/4, a Fin Whale in Rhode Island 2/29, a North Atlantic Right Whale, Juno’s calf 3/3. The calf was found dead on a beach in Georgia, a Minke Whale in North Carolina on 3/5, a Sperm Whale … Read more
The lobster situation in Maine makes for an entertaining sideshow. Increasingly-Democrat Maine relies heavily on its lobster cartel, but the Climate Cult put them in the stocks for “endangering” some bigoted Nazi whales.
The Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (9BOEM) has released a report that more or less admits that offshore wind farms pose a risk to marine ecosystems and that they are unavoidable. Biological Impacts: Marine mammals, sea turtles, birds, and fish could suffer due to noise, habitat displacement, and changes in migration patterns. Even bats, which … Read more
The aggravation over the failure of the turbine blade at Vinyard Wind continues to escalate. The foam and fiberglass that have plagued Nantucket all summer finally made it to Martha’s Vineyard. It seems appropriate, given the offshore farm’s name. But these alien invaders were not so quickly dispatched as the “migrants” were last year. In … Read more
New Hampshire residents will understand when Nantucket resident Pat McEvoy says the Feds jammed green energy (offshore wind) down their throats and that “We were not represented in this process.” Development in the Gulf of Maine has been fast-tracked thanks to State Senator David “This will look good on my resume” Watters. Dead whales didn’t stop it. … Read more
Regular readers caught the post yesterday about the heat in New England and how – it’s been hotter, but it is still hot. If you have a pool, you’re in it, and if you happen to be living or vacationing on a beach, that water is a much sought-after relief, unless you’re in Nantucket. Debris … Read more
Despite the collapse of the market, rising costs and prices, and the threat to wildlife, the powers that be are moving forward with offshore wind development off the coast of New Hampshire and Maine.
If you missed the recent ‘Grok coverage on offshore wind, you can catch up here. Wind Power is not any of the things they say and mostly things they will not, and a plan to put turbines off the coast of Maine and New Hampshire is moving ahead despite the long list of negatives.
Is it a bad day for your narrative when you have to stoop this low to justify a kink? We’re talking about whales. Male whales. One is reported to have attempted some form of whale-like penetration of the other, possibly without its consent. #MeToo? #BeleiveallWhales. Why bring it up?
Aside from the hundreds of billions in misguided government support, wind power doesn’t have much going for it. It is not clean or green. It kills bats, birds, and now whales. And in Scotland, they’ve had to admit that without diesel generators to warm and back up the turbines, they might work at all.
I am old enough to remember when the environmental tree-huggers of the 70s were all about saving the whales. Save the Whales was founded in 1977 but celebrated its 40th anniversary in 2020. Math was not the strong suit of the early climate watchers and saviors of Mother Earth. These folks are at a fork … Read more
In a little over a week, one of the development projects is being strong-armed and fast-tracked at the hands of New Hampshire’s ‘Developer Class,” and the politicians who aid and abet has its final meeting before the lease sale. The Gulf of Main Wind project. It is a ruling class bucket list project advocates want … Read more
On Tuesday, Americans saved America in no uncertain terms. And it was one of the biggest political tents in election history. Donald Trump’s campaign brought together people of every race, religion, lack of religion, sex, age, you name the demographic, to fend off impending and certain doom. That’s yuge. No matter what happens in the … Read more
The Biden Administration is in a mad rush to get offshore wind leases sold just in case Klimate Kamala blows it, loses in November, and the violent uprisings that would follow that don’t result in a change they can believe in. BOEM, the Bureau of Ocean and Energy Management, has announced the sale of leases … Read more

Montgomery County is a very woke DC suburb in Maryland that has long suffered the consequences of its proximity to that poised well. The resulting brain damage causes hallucinations, a sense of false intellectual supremacy, and a driving desire to be in positions of authority where access to nearly endless sums of other people’s money … Read more
