SCOOP from me:
I uncovered that the Interior Department just quietly defunded *two* multimillion dollar research programs studying how whales move and behave near U.S. wind farms actively being built.
Trump blames wind turbines for whale deaths, then cuts vital research on the topic. 🧵

“One-time build” is a marketing myth. Tech doesn’t eliminate mining—it accelerates it. Growth outpaces efficiency. Reuse is limited, recycling is partial, and renewables require vast land, metals, and infrastructure. It’s not a transition—it’s expansion
