Story by Ariel Zilber • 17h

A French energy giant is halting a plan to build an offshore wind farm near the New York-New Jersey coastline following President-elect Donald Trump’s victory earlier this month.

TotalEnergies SE, the Paris-based oil and gas conglomerate, said it would halt the project in what industry observers say is a sign of things to come under a second Trump administration.

“Offshore wind, I have decided to put the project on pause” with Trump’s return, Total CEO Patrick Pouyanne told a conference in London on Tuesday. His comments were reported by Bloomberg News.

I don't think Lurch knows jacksh=t about the climate.  However, if Greta Thunberg agrees with him, you have to take it as gospel.
