Stop the dumping of dispersants into the Gulf of Mexico. How many off shore wind turbines does the EU have? almost TWO THOUSAND. specifically --1939. How many off shore wind turbines does the US have?.. 1... One.... as in one, a single one... a pilot project by the Univ. of Maine. 'Offshore wind power in the U.S. has struggled mightily to rise from the waves, even as other renewable energy industries have steadily grown. The country now has more than 60,000 megawatts of onshore wind, but still just the lone offshore turbine, a pilot project run in part by researchers at the University of Maine. Meanwhile, Europe has left the U.S. far behind, installing its first offshore turbine in 1991 and growing rapidly in the past decade. To date, the countries of the European Union have built 1,939 offshore turbines with 6,040 megawatts of capacity.'
