"...the five wind turbines near Block Island have triggered a boom in fish populations, transforming turbine foundations into thriving artificial reefs... A seven-year study monitoring over 600,000 fish from 61 species found no harm to marine life - only growth. Similar results have been seen in Europe, where Danish and Belgian wind farms now host booming underwater communities.
