Trump orders suspension of latest offshore wind energy leasing

A White House press release said Trump issued an executive action suspending offshore wind leasing from all areas of the U.S. outer continental shelf pending an environmental and economic review.

  • order is not expected to impact existing U.S. offshore wind projects

Trump says wind mills are ugly, expensive and harm
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.”
