Wind power

This is where you can discuss your homework, family, just about anything, make strange sounds and otherwise discuss things which are really not related to the Lancer-series. Yes that means you can discuss other games.

Speaking of body heat......

I really dig Kathleen Turner's voice.

Anyway, I've been looking around and there are way more than 5 to 7 windmills providing electricity to Copenhagen. Also, windmills are not the exclusive supply of power in Denmark although, compared to other countries in Europe, Denmark is much more green in that area. In 2001, Denmark had >>>5700<<< wind generators working to produce 2 gigawatts of power. Meanwhile, as a nation, Denmark consumed, in 1999, 20 gigawatts of power. Even assuming that since 2001 more windmills have been erected, it still isn't going to supply the majority of needed energy ... assuming that power consumption in Denmark remained the same since 1999.

Damn right taw well i didn't go around searching for solid proof but lets get back to my opening post. the green peace people in canada say thata the world can be powered two times over using windmills and there was no little writing on the bottom of the screen so.... also i dont have the time to research alot so wadda ya going to do, i think this subject is dead because were about to be going around i circles i can just tell

Wind mills won't work for large cities like LA, New York, Atlanta, Chicago, Dallas, ect, due to the overly large power grid and the needs that coninue to grow. The atlanta area can go for days with little wind.

wind should be a back up energy source must Ireturn to THE blackout of the entire north east U.S.A.

yeah sigh... but someday maybe they will BUT if we combine solar power and wind power we can get a good chunk of non poluting power. i mean T.O could use just solar power and wind power and T.O has more people then alot of cities over the world... besides we still use primitive coal and dangerous nuke power.... and i belive someone said a microwave has more radation then a nuke power plant.... well if that was aid that is totaly wrong

I did not start this .... unless you're referring the porcine methane thingy in which case I still take umbrage as it was a Moderator, who shall remain nameless, who introduced the point of all renewable resources as a means of generating power.

At that point someone else who also shall remain nameless but not beardless introduced the subject of a specific movie and after THAT someone else who likes to cast blame away from himself, guilty s*d that he is in reality, introduced the discussion of quienes es mas caliente, Tina o Grace . That was not me either.....

AND.... I did bring it back by pointing out that someone else, he who started this thread, had got the facts wrong on what it takes to generate electricity for Copenhagen by use of wind generators. [V
