Stop the whale slaughter off NY NJ NOW

The Issue

A whale and a dolphin a week have washed ashore dead since surveying for Offshore wind began off NJ this winter. These surveys use sonic hammering at 196 decibels to test the seabed for construction of the towers. This causes painful death to whales who are finally coming back to the area after hundreds of years.   Help stop the slaughter and insist their surveying and eventual operation become acoustically silent before this migratory pathway is compromised before construction begins in this pristine habitat.

This must be halted NOW by way of an injunction since no one is in the way but you. Thank you Keith Poe for the whale image and your Great White research
