“The US has immense offshore wind resources. If it puts its sights to it, it could become the leading country on floating offshore wind” - Henrik Stiesdal, the Danish wind turbine inventor and pioneer. More in story via @ella_nilsen cnn.com/2023/05/19/us/floati…
The future of wind energy in the US is floating turbines as tall as 30 Rock | CNN

Hypocrisy is not a flaw of modern Republican ideology--It's a feature, and a selling point. Their proposed ban on offshore wind is just the latest example. 🧵

Second this.
Today we're announcing actions to advance *floating* offshore wind platforms—key to harnessing the potential of deep waters along the West Coast, Gulf of Maine, & more. Part of @POTUS' plan for American jobs and leadership on new clean energy technologies! whitehouse.gov/briefing-room…

In Florida, Matrix LLC has been tied to everything from election scandals to buying a news site and letting power company executives write headlines. But how deep does the Matrix go? Turns out they’ve been helping power companies in at least eight states rb.gy/mu2pzb
The ignorance and absurdity of this statement is beyond "crisis of the day"🤬 "Capping carbon dioxide emissions at a level that will force a nationwide transition away from the use of coal to generate electricity may be a sensible 'solution to the crisis of the day,'" #SCOTUS
