🚨BREAKING: Save LBI files petition to protect the critically endangered North Atlantic right whale from extinction by designating its East Coast migration route as critical habitat & ban wind projects in its path. Without action, this iconic species won’t survive. To support this initiative, please write to the White House and the following officials, and ask other like-minded persons and organizations to do the same. savelbi.org Douglas Burgum, Secretary Department of the Interior 1849 C Street, NW, MS-4106 Washington D.C. 20240 EMAIL: Interior_Press@ios.doi.gov Howard Lutnick, Secretary Commerce Department 1401 Constitution Ave, NW Washington D.C. 20230 EMAIL: publicaffairs@doc.gov

They say that turbine failure is “very rare,” but also confirm a nacelle twisted 180° and debris was scattered throughout the area. Even If this is “rare”, communities have every right to be concerned.

Wind turbine damaged at Lake Winds Energy Park in Riverton Township #MI: Friday the 13th proved an unlucky day for a Lake Winds Energy Park wind turbine north of Hawley Road last week. A nacelle in the tower somehow twisted 180… wind-watch.org/news/2026/03/2… #windpower #windenergy

A young 51-foot endangered fin whale, found washed ashore in Barnegat Light was buried on the 25th Street beach. Officials are considering naming it, continuing a quiet tradition. Two previously deceased whales were named Albert and Beau by late Mayor Kirk Larson.

Only ~350–380 left! The North Atlantic right whale — especially mothers and calves — is at risk during East Coast migration. A turbine-free corridor = smart siting, protecting a vital nearshore pathway. In March 2025, Save Long Beach Island petitioned National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration — response due in 90 days. Still no answer. We need this safeguard NOW! @Congressman_JVD

@KenAd60 It weakens the environmental review process. The bill would limit reviews to only “immediate” and “proximate” impacts. That means long-term, indirect, and cumulative effects could be ignored, even if they are significant.

If the SPEED Act passes, challenging flawed environmental plans may become nearly impossible—removing a critical safeguard that ensures transparency & accountability in major federal projects. Help us fight- donate to SaveLBI Advocacy, PO Box 2087, Long Beach Township, NJ 08008

Save LBI has fought tirelessly against offshore wind farms threatening Long Beach Island.Recent federal legislation could severely restrict our funding and limit our ability to continue this mission in court. As Bob Stern, Save LBI president, stated: “A recent House bill emerged that could cut funding for coastal restoration while promoting offshore wind energy. That is not in our interest.” To respond, we’ve launched Save LBI Advocacy — a sister organization free to advocate for or against specific legislation, unlike Save LBI which faces 501(c)(3) restrictions. Stay tuned — the fight continues! Full article: tinyurl.com/4m5zr7zn

Wind turbine blades cannot be recycled. "In the US, the cheapest option is to send fibreglass blades to landfills." "By 2050, there could be more than 40 million metric tonnes of blade waste piling up worldwide."

Solar and wind are sold as cheaper than coal, gas or nuclear using a number called LCOE (Levelized Cost of Energy). But LCOE is a junk metric. It pretends that one-megawatt-hour of intermittent power is the same as one-megawatt-hour of reliable power. It isn't. When the sun doesn't shine or the wind doesn't blow, you still need electricity. So backup plants (coal, gas or nuclear) must run in the background, ready to fire instantly. LCOE fails to count that cost. It also ignores the miles of transmission lines for remote wind farms, the giant storage systems to cover lulls, the stabilizers to keep frequency steady, and the massive overbuild needed just to survive bad weather weeks.These hidden costs explode as wind and solar take over more of the grid. On paper, LCOE makes these renewables look cheap. In reality, they drive up costs system-wide. That's why nations with the most wind and solar have the highest electricity prices. LCOE isn't just misleading, it's a lie.

A two-megawatt windmill is made up of 260 tons of steel that required 300 tons or iron ore and 170 tons of coking coal, all mined, transported and produced by hydrocarbons. It hold 700 gallons of oil and hydraulic fluid, and like car these need to be replaced every 9 months. People might fall for the idea that we can merrily run on sunshine and breezes, alone, but with a few trillion dollars worth of mythical mega-batteries providing backup for a few minutes, it could spin until it falls apart over and over again and never generate as much energy as was invested in building it.

The jaw-dropping quantity of energy and resources required to construct just a single wind turbine. But let's keep pretending these expensive, inefficient, bird and bat slaying monstrosities are "green" and "environmentally-friendly".

The SPEED Act (and the SAVE Act as well) remains stalled because the Senate won’t tolerate endless filibusters before a simple-majority vote. It’s unsurprising that the oil industry is lobbying the president to reconsider opposition to offshore wind development—many such projects in U.S. waters are being built by foreign oil and gas companies. Trump’s war on wind is killing the permitting reform oil and gas wants “My goal is to not let any windmill be built,” @POTUS told oil executives at the White House last month. dredgewire.com/trumps-war-on-… @StopTheseThings @JunkScience @ScottPresler @Congressman_JVD
