Trek to the Turbines
August 27, 2018
GreenFaith and the National Wildlife Federation are partnering …
Please join us on Aug. 27 as we Trek to the Turbines! GreenFaith is partnering with the National Wildlife Federation to organize an educational luncheon and 3-hour ferryboat tour of the Block Island Wind Farm off the coast of Rhode Island … the only U.S. offshore wind farm!
The tour begins at 2:30 p.m. at the Quonset Point, RI pier, and returns there at 5:30 p.m. Before the tour, you’ll be invited to join us for a lunch and briefing to learn from experts about the environmental and job-creation benefits of offshore wind.
We will charter a round-trip bus from northern NJ (just 10 minutes from the George Washington Bridge) to the tour and back. We’ll leave early in the morning on Aug. 27, and return late that same day.
WHY TREK TO THE TURBINES?
This fall, New Jersey’s state government will decide about what kind of commitment to make to offshore wind power development. We think it’s time for a bold, environmentally responsible commitment that will create good, family-sustaining jobs, renewable energy, and cleaner air.
