USA: 75 Pct New Jerseyans Favor Offshore Wind Development

New Jersey Sierra Club yesterday released a new poll conducted by Monmouth University showing strong public support for offshore wind power in NJ.

75% of New Jerseyans favor building offshore wind in the state, and about two-thirds favor Governor Christie making offshore wind a priority for his administration. The poll also found that two-in-three New Jerseyans believe building offshore wind would strengthen New Jersey’s economy.

“Let’s take offshore wind over the finish line!” NJ Sierra Club called via its social network page.
