This is a big story in New Jersey. The state is planning on building offshore wind farms and some believe the sonar used for planning construction is killing the whales. The state government said no, it's the boats that are killing them.

It was never about the whales...

Shame.

They never think ahead with this type of stuff. Where on earth are you going to put all these windmills? Where are you going to get all the minerals to build them with? What type of energy are you going to use to mine said minerals? How many mines would you need to provide the entire planet solar panels and windmills? How much land would you need to cut bare to house the windmills, or are you just going to turn the ocean into some dystopian windmill nightmare? Windmills kill tons of birds, building stuff like this in the ocean is obviously disruptive to the life in the ocean, and whales specifically are incredibly sensitive to sounds, sonar can drive them to swim miles upon miles to get away from the noise. Do we no longer care about the impact our actions have on the environment? I thought the environment was literally the entire point of all this green nonsense!

Typical 🤡🌎

I’ve always wondered how they know how many are left? I’m sure the ones they’ve seen are tagged but when you think of the vast openness of the ocean…kinda seems arrogant to know the exact number.

There are people who still believe the Megalodon is still around….and that’s why I don’t venture out into the ocean….ever.

Interesting little tidbit about the right whales. The reason they took on the name "right" is because when they were killed by whalers they would float and not sink like some whale species. Hence the term "right" because they float to the surface.

Heard they were choking on face masks...
