Wind turbines installed off the East Coast are having serious impacts on East Coast beaches (in addition to whale habitat). I'm asking here:

Where are the real environmentalists?
The collapse of a wind turbine recently closed Nantucket beaches. They're open now, but why would anyone think that numerous fragments of them aren't floating around? Maybe bathing on the shore will not only cause problems for people swimming, but even for people walking on the beach?
There were no strong storms around. So what causes it?
But now let me ask this question as if this was ignored. If this happens without anything happening, what do you think would happen if a storm like 1821 moved through these wind fields?
Or came back in 1944
or carroll 1954
Donna 1960
Belle 1976
Gloria 1985
Bob, the last one was in 1991.
In typical double-sided fashion, the same people pushing the whole climate catastrophe scenario are also pushing wind turbines in areas where you're asking for trouble. The hurricane drought on the Northeast Coast cannot last forever (it has not happened in 33 years, compared with one every 7 years between 1938 and 1991). We heard how bad it was. That's not the case, but returning to “normal” hurricane frequency on the East Coast (of course they'd blame man-made climate change if that happened) means they've created a disaster. Let's say 10-15% of turbines are damaged by the category 2 cables that go through there. Resort beach cleanups will cost billions of dollars. Considering these people’s motivations for pushing the man-made climate agenda, maybe that’s what they want. They have everything pumped out due to man-made climate change. A recent Wall Street Journal article about how high temperatures in the East are causing billions of dollars in uninsured losses did not mention the counter. When the weather gets hotter, more people go to the beaches and resorts thrive. Of course, who wants to go to the beach if wind turbine parts wash up on the shore? My point is that in everything the left does, from climate to what you're seeing across the board right now, they frame the whole thing with deception, distortion, and delusion to create problems and then blame the people they're targeting Target.
There is no difference. This is a fiasco in the making.
I imagine if one of them washed up at Barack Obama's place on Martha's Vineyard, it would get his attention – no paddleboarding for a while (sarcasm).
