Wind Energy
By Brent Garber
Introduction:
Growing up, I have always tried to find ways to improve products, systems, and anything else I could think of. I have begun to see a desperate need to improve the system of energy in our world today. What will happen if we keep polluting our earth with emissions from fossil fuels? What will happen when we run out of those fossil fuels? Will we have any other options? Are there other options? The answer is "yes," there is an almost constant supply of energy just waiting to be harnessed. This is the energy of the wind. To learn more about wind energy, click here to read my research paper.
