According to a report by @URICRC, @rhodeislandsg & #URIGSO, Rhode Island's #blueeconomy has a boatload of potential. Between 6 - 9% of Rhode Islanders work within the state’s ocean-based economy, which is valued at more than $5 billion. Via @ecoRInews ➡️ https://t.co/CDTdDC20Lg
5-turbine Block Island Wind Farm is only offshore energy facility in waters off the East Coast, but there are plans to add 2,000 more wind turbines, including the 84 proposed for Vineyard Wind. https://t.co/p1QBKFH8Nu
"As an org that firmly believes that climate change is our single greatest threat facing wildlife here in Rhode Island & across the globe, we know we've got to stand up large-scale sources of renewable energy as quickly as their responsible development will allow." #offshorewind
