Question

what benefits do wind turbines provide in the marine environment that oil rigs do not?
cargo ships can travel between turbines.
the bases of turbines form artificial reefs.
wind turbines provide a clean energy source.
wind turbines dont impact seabird populations.

Explanation:

Oil rigs are used for extracting fossil - fuels which are non - clean energy sources. Wind turbines convert wind energy into electricity, which is a clean and renewable energy source. Cargo ships can also travel between oil rigs in some cases. While turbine bases can form artificial reefs and impacts on seabirds is a complex issue, the most fundamental and widely - recognized benefit is the clean energy aspect.

Answer:

Wind turbines provide a clean energy source.
