What is an advantage of Wind Energy?
It pollutes the environment
It is a clean power source
It requires a lot of land to generate electricity
Windmills require land so clearing of land for windmills damage ecosystems
Wind energy requires strong (a) which spins the blades to then create power
What are 2 disadvantages of Wind Energy
Creates jobs for people
It creates visual pollution
It is very cost-effective and very easy to build
It's not so efficient in places without strong wind
Wind is used to produce electricity using (a) energy created by air.
What is a wind farm?
A group of people who work together and turn wooden wheels to produce energy
A group of windmills that generate energy using the wind
A group of wind turbines that generate energy using the wind
A power plant that turns wind into kinetic energy
Do you think windmills are good or bad for the environment?
Why are windmills not regarded as an efficient power source?
Windmills take up a lot of lands and can only be used in certain areas and only generate power in windy weather
Windmills require the clearing of land which damages ecosystems
