NEW YORK, Dec 10 - Democratic presidential candidate Elizabeth Warren on Tuesday proposed a"Blue New Deal" to revitalize and protect the world's oceans, including phasing out all offshore drilling and investing in renewable energy projects like wind turbines.
Warren, a U.S. senator from Massachusetts, is among the top contenders for the Democratic nomination to take on Republican President Donald Trump in the November 2020 election. There are 15 Democrats vying for the party's nod. In addition, her administration would seek to ensure that any wind infrastructure is made with U.S. iron, steel and cement and employs American crews and boats to ferry goods and workers.
She added she would reinstate an Obama-era program that protected vast swaths of the Atlantic and Arctic oceans from oil and gas leasing.
