To the Editor:
I have been contributing letters and commentary to The SandPaper for the past three years opposing offshore wind projects and noting the negative environmental impacts, the threat to endangered whales; the significant impacts on commercial and recreational fishing; the threat to national security; the threat to our community culture; loss of tourism, local jobs and property value; unacceptable visible impacts, high costs, etc.
These projects make no sense and are being pursued out of political stubbornness, and for monetary gain.
