Wind Energy

• The source of energy that will change our lives.

2
Where does the world get most of its energy?

• The world gets most of its energy from fossil
  fuels such as coal, oil, and natural gas.

3
When did people start using fossil fuels?

• People started using fossil fuels in 1000 B.C.
  Fossil fuels can be used for many things.

4

Wind Energy The pros

• I think that wind energy is a good source of
  energy, because wind is always blowing. Wind
  Energy is a good source of energy, because if
  there is wind, we also do not have to burn up all
  of our fossil fuels.

How does Wind Energy work?

• There are many steps to wind energy. They are
  listed here.
• The turbine captures the wind energy.
• Inside the turbine, there is a generator. The
  wind goes through the generator, and is
  transferred into energy.
• Underground, power lines come out of the wind
  turbine, and goes to an energy transformer.
• The transformer then takes the energy to the
  natural power grid.
• In just 4 steps, wind is converted into energy.

9
The cons of wind energy.

• Some cons of wind energy are
• Not all wind is the same
• Turbines are not put up all over the country.

10
Conclusion

• I think that we should start using more wind
  energy. Even though wind energy is cleaner for
  the environment, it still costs a lot of
  government money.
