I don't think this is a fair assessment of Shellenberger. He certainly isn't partisan as he defends free speech for all and comes down on the side of Nuclear over renewable. He has spent a very long time showing that wind energy is annihilating Whales at an unprecedented pace. He is what I would call an Enlightenment liberal. He is consistent in his work, goes above and beyond to show proof in his work, and angers people on the left and the right. That is a good thing, as it shows he can't be bought for likes. He doesn't deny climate change. He wants cheap and clean energy. That's all I'll say. I just didn't want someone to read your comment and think one opinion was the majority opinion. Have a nice day.
The wind/whales gambit is a good example of his duplicity. He obviously doesn't care about whales -- he's just trying to cast doubt on the future of renewable energy in any way he can. This is a standard argument raised by fossil fuel interests and their lackeys.
According to NOAA "there is no scientific evidence that noise resulting from offshore wind site characterization surveys could potentially cause mortality of whales. There are no known links between recent large whale mortalities and ongoing offshore wind surveys."
