We talked about wind power in class, and this slim blonde girl piped up in her quiet voice about how wind farms cause damage downwind where there's less wind and the climage changes.Originally Posted by Rantzien
If 'global warming' = true, then there's more radiant energy in our atmosphere. More energy = more storms (and more importantly) more wind. The wind has picked up considerably the last few years. There have been dozens of seemingly solid trees in my hometown that were just uprooted. Healthy oak trees just blown over. There's been two trees in my backyard that blew over, a pine and a mulberry (the mulberry survived because it was next to a concrete patio and could only blow halfway over. It looks so silly making branches out of its roots xD).
Also a thought I had is that we can't depend on finding some miracle replacement for what we use now. We'll have to finetune our power generation to our power usages, and that's the only way we can regain anything back against the likes of friction, heat, and sound.
