  ruined views for fish?

  Well, you've made a heck of a point there, yeah, let's not build the wind farm because we're worried about the view of the fish.  Actually, I think they'll like the look of the stuff growing on the wind turbine foundations!On Over 150 activists send letter asking Kennedy to reconsider position posted 3 years, 10 months ago 21 Responses

  fact check time

  On noise - offshoe wind farms in Europe cannot be heard from shore including ones much closer to land than these would be.  Offshore wind turbines are hard to hear right up close.  Turbine noise has been reduced and its noisy out there from the wind and waves.

  On land use.  The shoal area where this wind farm would be located is 24 square miles, of which, over 99.9% will remain open water, where boats (that don't mind shoals) will continue to be able to go, and it will produce power plant type power (170 MW on average, which is nothing to sneeze at).On Over 150 activists send letter asking Kennedy to reconsider position posted 3 years, 10 months ago 21 Responses
