According to studies by two US science teams, the earth produces enough wind to match the amount of power used today. In fact, it produces 10-20 times as much energy as is used today or would be used in the near future. Wind is a clean, efficient source of energy, so why is it not utilized more? The problem is money (go figure). In order to convert the world's main energy source to wind, there would need to be about 100 new turbines for every 1 that exists now. While this idea of a clean, efficient, wind powered earth is satisfying, it may be some time before it becomes a reality. For the full article, follow the link below.
