Powering Change: Offshore Wind

New Bedford, Massachusetts, made its fortune hunting whales for oil. Nearly two centuries later, Mayor Jon Mitchell is wagering the city’s comeback on offshore wind. Miles O’Brien flies out to the turbines, rides with fishermen wary of losing their scallop grounds, and examines the political storm, from whale die-off claims to President Trump’s stop-work orders, testing the future of wind power.
