Construction is underway on New York's first offshore wind project.
South Fork Wind is being jointly developed by Ørsted and Eversource, and is expected to come online in 2023.
The project positions New York to lead the nation in offshore wind development, according to Doreen M. Harris, president and CEO of the New York State Energy and Research Development Authority (NYSERDA). She said it would establish a robust supply chain for future projects.
"We are solidifying New York State's clean energy vision," Harris said.
New York's goal is to develop 9 GW of offshore wind by 2035. In January, New York Gov. Kathy Hochul announced that the state would invest $500 million to set up manufacturing and supply chain infrastructure for offshore wind.
South Fork Wind Farm is a 132 MW project to be sited 19 miles southeast of Block Island, Rhode Island. The project is approved to install 12 or fewer wind turbines and is expected to use Siemens-Gamesa’s 11 MW turbines. Kiewit Offshore Services won a contract to will design and build the project’s substation.

Send a Bible to a Starving Child
Here’s where you can donate to send a copy of the bible to the poorest of the poor African children.
Let the word of God explain to these children why they are dying of sickness and starvation. Certainly, their parents will be interested to learn this as well.

The Nazi Playbook
Always blame your opposition for the crimes you committed.
We baby boomers remember when the two dominant political parties were essentially indistinguishable. Eisenhower, a Republican, stood for strong Social Security, limited military, unemployment insurance, and a strong minimum wage.
What does today’s GOP champion? Cutting off all assistance for the poor, tax cuts of billionaires, slashing into Social Security (the money you and I earned) and starting a senseless and illegal war.
Who are the radicals here?

What It Means to be a Leftist
I just came across Sofo Archon, an incredibly interesting speaker and writer.
My only response to what he says at left is that you are, in fact, a leftist, whether you accept that or not. Anyone who says that he belongs to “Humanity and Earth” is a leftist by definition, just like anyone who wears the t-shirt below.
This is kind of like saying, “I am neither a Christian nor an atheist, but I believe in God and I accept His son Jesus Christ as my savior.” Sorry, that makes you a Christian.
