3.5 Million Acres Ghosted by Offshore Wind Dreams
In a stunning twist, the Interior Department has declared over 3.5 million acres of federal waters off-limits for offshore wind development, effectively ghosting renewable energy ambitions. As the article dryly notes, those acres are now 'no longer eligible for offshore wind development,' which sounds like nature saying, 'Not today, turbines.' The federal waters went from shining hopes to a bureaucratic dead zone faster than you can say 'green energy mismanagement.' It's the sea's way of ghosting clean power, one acre at a time.
