Pay attention, and watch the video. One moment is spent on "the whales," and yes, elected representatives are supposed to look out for their constituents, the taxpayers. Most of this is about the ratepayer advocate who advised against welfare for a multi-billion company. Kind of ironic how libs were deep in bed with the big bad evil foreign corporation on this one? See how that works? Keep spitting out your one-sided talking points.
It was just a bad deal from the start. It would have been Zanadu on water, with NJ taxpayers footing the bill on cost overruns for higher energy costs.
Agreed you would absolutely see these things especially at the 13-20 mile distance proposed for the site off of Seaside. These windmills are over 1100 ft tall with a blade sweep of 725 ft. It's the equivalent of an 90 story building. Can you see the lower NYC skyline from Carteret? It's the same thing.
That was the excuse for killing a new tunnel. The need is still there.
Common sense to tough issues. Unfortunately a good portion of our government has sold out to foreign interests. We have got to get corporate money out of our political system. The nation depends on it.
Oh the irony. Thanks to the GOP, right wing activist judges and citizens united, giving unlimited and undisclosed money to politicians is free speech and an inalienable right. Job well done. But it's Democrats who are destroying America.
The beach. The marine environment. The whales.

Seriously, these projects are stupid. By the time most of them are up and running, the technology will be long outdated. There are better solutions for green energy (and most of them I FULLY support).
They're fighting for whales. What other wild animals and environments do they care about? Old growth forests? Endangered species? The Gulf of Mexico, which is full of oil rugs? Are they Sierra Club and EPA supporters now?The beach. The marine environment. The whales.

Whales are very important for the marine ecosystem. Gotta protect them and our beaches.
Don't you have more shots to take at Cole Snyder? It's not about whale-loving. Pay attention.
Just to clarify, this is one company backing out of one contract, among many. Not the end of wind at the Jersey shore. While higher interest rates and other industry headwinds have made major projects like harder, so there is now some industrywide doubt, this is by no means the end.
He was not sharp, but Buffalo's OL sucks, and the receivers had a lot of drops too. But you are not watching closely enough because he stole your lunch money or something.Thanks for the reminder, wow did he suck last night
NJ offshore wind may not be dead, but any projects close enough to see from the beach are DEAD. Trenton heard from the people and got scared. Pols care more about their reelection than they do about clean energy.
Residents of the OC led the way on this round of NIMBYism.....and won.
