Another dead dolphin has washed up along Newport’s picturesque Ocean Drive—this time in full view of the offshore wind turbines critics are calling an ecological disaster in the making.

The bloated, decaying dolphin carcass, spotted Monday, is just the latest grim addition to what NOAA has labeled an “Unusual Mortality Event” for marine mammals that has plagued the East Coast for the past several years. But while federal officials scramble for answers, locals and environmental watchdogs are pointing to a common thread: the ever-expanding wind farms popping up off our shores.

With marine mammal strandings on the rise—including whales, dolphins, and porpoises—skeptics are demanding answers about the potential impacts of sonar mapping, pile driving, and increased vessel traffic tied to offshore wind development. 

“Unusual”? Try alarming.

Wind industry backers insist there’s no “conclusive evidence” linking their operations to the marine deaths—but critics say the timing is more than suspicious. Since the rush to build massive offshore turbines began, the number of dead marine mammals has spiked, and communities up and down the coast are taking notice.

How many more marine mammals need to die before someone admits these wind farms may be doing more harm than good?

As the body count climbs, the public deserves transparency—not excuses.

Please help! Bailey’s adoption just fell throug Please help!  Bailey’s adoption just fell through, and her owner is moving to Australia in EIGHT DAYS. If we can’t find her a new home by then, this sweet girl has nowhere to go.

Bailey is a 3-year-old Labrador-Staffordshire mix with a heart of gold. Her owner, a longtime UN employee, was suddenly called overseas. Because of Australia’s tough pet import laws and quarantine requirements, Bailey can’t come along. It’s heartbreaking.

Originally rescued from Sofie’s Place in Arkansas, Bailey is spayed, microchipped, fully vaccinated, and healthy. She weighs 47 lbs, is calm and gentle, loves kids, and plays well with other dogs. She just needs a loving home—fast.

She’s currently in Fairfield, CT, but he’ll drive her to meet you if it means giving her a second chance.

Please—if you can help, contact Phil immediately:
📞 203-343-7280
📧 phil_mcinerney@yahoo.com

Even if you can’t adopt, please share. Let’s not let Bailey down.
