Interesting point. I doubt it would be significant. Total wind power
equals the total solar energy that intercepts earth, and that is
immense compared to human energy consumption.
Wind farms of that magnitude sur
I wonder what the environmental impact would be to tap it. Wind farms of
that magnitude surely would have some net-effect on the low altitude weather
patterns of the region they are located and the regions down wind of

That is astounding. There is also enough wind power in North and
