Green Oceans’ submission to BOEM details the environmental risks associated with the Sunrise Wind project.

In light of the Vineyard Wind GE Vernova blade failure, Green Oceans sent a letter to BOEM requesting a supplemental EIS. We have never heard back.

BOEM admits the negative impacts of climate change will continue, unchanged, despite the addition of offshore wind to the US grid.

BOEM admits they do not expect offshore wind projects will have a material effect on climate change, not just a single project, but even all of the planned projects, collectively.

The Environmental Impact Statements fail to scientifically prove any benefits to climate change.

Offshore wind turbines can generate significant electricity but are intermittent, requiring fossil fuel generators to stabilize the grid, which increases their carbon emissions due to inefficient operation. Real-world data from Rhode Island shows that adding wind power to the grid has led to higher CO2 emissions, and developers acknowledge that offshore wind projects are unlikely to reduce global warming or combat climate change, with their primary goal being to meet renewable energy mandates.
