4 Perspectives On Offshore Wind For NYC
Friday, Feb 19, 2016
We know that for New York State to go 100% renewable, we need 40% of our energy mix to come from offshore wind (tinyurl.com/NYJacobsonStudy). But how will building the "Rockaway" wind farm impact the local communities, workers, and wildlife? Join us for a lively panel discussion and audience Q&A about how we can unite various factions behind this much-needed green energy project.
We have speakers from Uprose, National Wildlife Federation, IBEW, DeepWater Wind ... and Professor Mark Jacobson will join us by Skype! Specific details to be announced soon!
