    Wind Energy-The Power of the FUTURE How does wind energy work? When the sun warms the land on the Earth, the atmosphere heats also. Warm air rises and cool air sinks, therefore, when the warm air rises, the cool air from the sea replaces it. This movement of air is what makes the wind blow. When the wind blows against the wind turbines, this spins the blades. These blades capture some of the kinetic energy from the wind. The generator takes the kinetic energy from the spinning blades and turns…

    Wind energy is one of the many available renewable energy sources, meaning that it is a resource which can be used repeatedly because it is replaced naturally. Early recorded history shows that people used this form of energy to propel their boats since 5,000 B.C. Later China used windmills to pump water by 200 B.C., and Persia used windmills to grind grain and pump water about 500-900 A.D. Eventually the windmill lead to the creation of the first wind turbine, invented in 1888 in Cleveland,…

In my opinion, with the current infrastructure of the United States, the only way the US can generate enough energy effectively and efficiently is by combining nuclear, hydroelectric, solar, wind, and biofuels. Nuclear can generate a solid baseline in which solar can add on to during the day when energy usage is near its highest. The rest of the sources can add onto what is being produced by nuclear and can then match the energy…
