Wind turbines are a blight on Rhode Island

The recent typhoon in China shows exactly what can happen in the American northeast with wind turbines.
The amount of damage turbines may are already be causing to marine life ( you only see what is washing up on shore; what do you think is going on with the natural habitat below?) shows total disregard for the environment.
Rhode Islanders are proud of the way they have made their beaches and bays the envy of the Northeast. The Save the Bay project cleaned up Narragansett Bay. Well, that is in jeopardy now.
I am a native Rhode Islander whose late father ensured I knew every detail about every Rhode Island hurricane. Apparently, Senator Sheldon Whitehouse is clueless on this matter. If he understood what can happen here with the history of Cat 2,3 and borderline 4 hurricanes over the years, 1938,1944,1954,1960,1985,1991 that have come through the coastal waters of the northeast, combined with the wear and tear of many noreasters, he would change his position on energy. Do you think for one second that the people running China care about what happens when their so-called storm proof wind turbines go down? Why would they put them up in a place that gets hit by typhoons? Because they don’t give a damn. Neither does Whitehouse.
