Demand Don't Let This Oil Billionaire "Koch-Block" This Historic Wind Power Project
Cape Wind, a clean-energy wind farm planned off the coast of Nantucket, would produce 75 percent of the power for Cape Cod, Martha's Vineyard and Nantucket, and would be America's first offshore wind farm. It could serve as a model for other American offshore wind farms, like those common in Europe.
But the project has remained on the drawing board for more than a decade, thanks to the opposition of billionaire William Koch:
"Mr. Koch, a billionaire industrialist who made his fortune in fossil fuels and whose better-known brothers underwrite conservative political causes, has been fighting the wind farm, called Cape Wind, for more than a decade, donating about $5 million and leading an adversarial group against it." (source)
Cape Wind could be a powerful weapon in the fight against global warming, but it's being blocked because an oil billionaire doesn’t like the way the views would look from his compound?
Enough is enough. Environmentalists and advocates of common sense in general are fighting back, and we need to lend our voice as well.
Take action, send a message, and don’t let them Koch-block wind power.
