Earthling, we love wind-generated electricity. We know, we know. Some Earthlings will complain that despite wind being green, you do not like to see the wind turbines in your view of the countryside.
Do you want wind farms in the fields? Or would you prefer coal particles
in your lungs? We laugh at Earthlings bragging about being a digital, Internet society. Did you know that 50% of the electricity generated in United States is produced by coal?
Yes, there is plenty of coal on your planet, but coal is not the answer to your electricity needs because coal is not good for the environment no matter what your government officials tell
you. Remember, government politicians receive political donations from lobbyists who represent the coal and power generation industry.
Earthling, we believe wind blows. We highly recommend it. It is not going to solve your energy issues in the long run, but until you gain superior intelligence like us, you should use wind power as an energy source.
5 Reasons to go wind
1. Reduce CO2 Emissions. Electricity from coal and natural gas creates carbon dioxide and other harmful greenhouse gases. A wind farm reduces CO2 emissions as it produces electricity.
2. Wind is a renewable resource. The wind blows and blows. Your Earth will never run out of wind. Use wind energy and you reduce the amount of non-renewable natural resources used. You will save one pound of coal for every kilowatt-hour of electricity created by wind.
3. Wind power uses less land. Wind farms can be place on the same land as crops or grazing cattle. Only 5% of the area of a wind farm is used for the equipment.
4. The energy used to make the wind turbines is recovered in a few months, unlike other sources of energy.
5. One block of wind power (about 25% of the average person's use):
- cuts CO2 emissions by 249 pounds a month
- can offset the burning of 12 gallons of gasoline
- can offset driving your car 2,930 miles in 12 months
- cuts CO2 emissions by 2,988 pounds a year
Be green like us... go wind!
