I reckon that because global supply chains are in the midst of recovering from the lull of the pandemic, there has been substantial increase in ship traffic over the past two years(as we return to prepandemic commercial environment. I am not saying this IS the reason, but it could explain some of the cetecean deaths.

Whales have washed up on NJ beaches for centuries, it isn't necessarily a new phenomenon. However, the increase in occurence is fairly new and that is rightfully concerning. There are many lobbies and special interests that stand to lose money if these wind turbines are installed, keep those actors in mind when reading anything critical of the project. The opposite is true for those in support of it.

There's a lot of politics involved in this project and we need to be careful not to latch onto talking points before facts have a chance to catch up. The deaths of whales are heartbreaking, I suspect Exelon knows this and is happily preying upon those heart strings to fight against renewable energy in NJ, this is expected from a company who has monopolized the energy market in South Jersey.
