RFK Jr. orders CDC to investigate potential health risks of offshore wind farms
11/15/2025 // Belle Carter //
HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has directed the CDC to study potential health and environmental risks of offshore wind farms, including electromagnetic frequencies from undersea cables and chemical leaching from turbine materials.
Studies suggest offshore wind turbines release toxic metals (aluminum, zinc, iridium) and microplastics into marine ecosystems, raising concerns about seafood contamination and human health impacts like cancer and endocrine disruption.
Commercial fishing communities oppose wind farms, citing disrupted fishing grounds, ecological damage and unknown occupational hazards, leading to lawsuits against Biden-era projects.
The Trump administration, skeptical of offshore wind, halted projects like Revolution Wind citing cost and national security concerns, while Biden pushes aggressive expansion despite mounting opposition.
The CDC's findings could influence future wind farm approvals, highlighting tensions between rapid renewable energy expansion and potential ecological harm—amplifying the administration’s skepticism.
