Trump said he’ll end offshore wind “on day one.” Experts say he can’t do that, but his administration could cause plenty of trouble for the nascent industry. (www.canarymedia.com)

Why? From the article:

Trump’s pledge to end the industry came during a May campaign stop at a New Jersey coastal resort city that’s been fighting offshore wind development over concerns that it’ll harm the fishing industry and spoil views from shorefront properties. During his speech, Trump repeated a claim from offshore wind opponents that the projects kill whales — a theory that federal researchers have debunked.
