Evaluating Offshore Wind Energy Projects

Thanks to advances in technology and a growing bipartisan consensus that a transition to clean energy is needed to address climate change, there are a growing number of clean energy projects on the horizon, especially in offshore wind energy.
National Audubon Society’s science shows that climate change is the number one threat to birds, putting up to two-thirds of North American bird species at risk of extinction. We support getting to net-zero carbon emissions and transitioning to clean energy. We want to ensure that we build new solar and wind projects in a way that protects birds and mitigates the risk to migratory species. That's why Audubon strongly supports properly sited and operated clean energy projects.
Dr. Shilo Felton, coastal avian ecologist and Field Manager with Audubon’s Clean Energy Initiative, talks about how responsible offshore wind projects can protect birds and the places they live, and how you can take action in your community.
