Fishermen in Morro Bay are about to get a much taller neighbor than the ancient volcanic mound that stands like a giant at the tip of the harbor.
Wind turbines are coming.
“These things are as big as skyscrapers,” says Chris Pavone, who’s among roughly 120 fishermen who trap, troll, and drop lines off Morro Bay and Avila Beach.

Joe Biden, Gavin Newsom Approve Offshore Wind Turbine Hub
California’s central coast will soon receive a 4.6 gigawatt renewable energy hub that will be able to power 1.6 million homes. Officials are touting offshore energy as a way to stabilize the state’s power grid.
May 26, 2021 • (TNS) The waters off California s Central Coast will soon become a renewable energy hub with plans moving forward for offshore wind turbines floating northwest of Morro Bay, according to announcements from key White House officials, Gov. Gavin Newsom and other lawmakers on Tuesday.
The federal government is fast-tracking plans that have been in the works for several years to build 4.6 gigawatts (GW) worth of offshore wind turbines near the Central Coast and Humboldt areas. That s enough to power about 1.6 million homes, according to the Department of the Interior.

Tule, a six-year-old Belgian Malinois scouts for bear scat near southwestern Montana’s Big Hole Valley. Grizzlies have been sighted in the area after many decades, and DNA from the scat would inform biologists and land managers working to recover this threatened species where they’re coming from.
Pepin is a Belgian Malinois, a sleek race-car version of the more common German shepherd. Strong, self-assured, and intensely focused (a littermate was part of Seal Team 6’s takedown of Osama bin Laden), Pepin has trotted across Zambian savannas to find evidence of lions, leopards, and cheetahs, and he’s pushed through lowland tropical rainforests in Myanmar searching out signs of wild elephants. His skill at sniffing out different animals’ dung has given conservationists a quick way to estimate those animals’ populations.
