Trump's War on Wind Power: A Costly U-Turn
Description
Trumps second term initiative targets wind power, freezing new offshore permits and blocking land projects under national security flags. Despite wind powers growing significance, providing 10.5% of Americas electricity and costing less than gas, coal, or nuclear, Trumps claims of links to whale deaths and bird risks are debunked. Judges shut down parts of his orders, and payouts to companies like TotalEnergies and Ocean Winds to abandon wind projects spark controversy. As oil prices rise and the world shifts to renewables, this pushback creates uncertainty, while wind and solar power remain the future for long-term savings and free energy.
