Subject:

Please support the Bluewater Wind offshore wind park in Delaware.

Bluewater Wind would create economic benefits of $750 million over 25 years by eliminating the following greenhouse gas emissions:

1.35 billion pounds of carbon dioxide (the primary cause of global warming)

14.4 million pounds of sulfur oxides (the primary cause of acid rain)

5.17 million pounds of nitrogen oxides (the key ingredient in smog pollution)

Saving money while it addresses climate change, the Bluewater Wind project would also create a new source of skilled, well-paid jobs, and generate income for the state through power exports.

Please support Delaware wind power production so that we can realize its enormous economic, environmental and public health benefits.
