wildlife

• “We’re not going to do the wind thing. Big, ugly wind mills.
  They ruin your neighborhood,”
• said offshore wind projects
  were behind an increase in whale deaths off the U.S. East Coast
  in recent years
• “They’re the most expensive form of energy that
  you can have, by far. And they kill your birds and they ruin
  your beautiful landscapes.”
