Current electricity generation
Wind is completely self-renewing and is available in abundant supply across Canada.
New Employment opportunities are an indirect benefit of this source of power. The development of wind farms brings a long-term industry to the hosting area or community, creating jobs and revenue for local economies.
Sound, Thanks to research and technological advancement, wind turbines are extremely quiet while operating. Improved blade design and enclosed generators have made it possible to stand directly beneath a running turbine and conduct a conversation at a normal volume level.
Land use, Ranchers and farmers are usually very receptive to having wind turbines placed on their land. Rental fees from turbines provide a consistent form of income, supplementing and supporting the day to day operations of the landowner. In addition, very little land is taken out of production – crops can be grown and cultivated within a few feet of the base of each turbine, and livestock are not at all bothered by their presence.
Birds, It is incorrectly assumed that modern wind turbines cause a high rate of bird deaths. Studies from around the world have shown that the average turbine kills fewer birds than the windows of an average home or the average use of a car. In fact, wind turbines help the ecosystem by significantly reducing the amount of emissions in the atmosphere, creating a healthier environment for all the earth’s species.
Every revolution is about power, For the first time in history, we can choose how to power our world. By choosing wind power, we choose to move forward and make a difference. Wind energy is 100% pollution free, renewable and abundant. It’s good for the air, for the earth and for our future. Coal and natural gas supplies are finite, cause tremendous damage to the environment, and their costs continue to increase.Wind needs to be developed today.
