Energy from the Sun causes wind.
Why might using other sources of power like wind and solar energy help to slow global warming?
Because renewable energy, like wind and solar, has no greenhouse gas emissions.
What are two differences between using solar energy and wind energy?
1. solar energy you get from the sun while wind energy you get from the wind 2. solar energy you have to have solar things (ex solar ovens) wind energy you need a windmill for.
What is the difference between solar energy and wind energy?
The difference between solar energy and wind energy is that solar energy comes from the sun and is in the form of waves. However they are both renewable energy resources.
Why is wind energy called solar energy?
Wind energy is not called solar energy. Solar energy is the energy from the sun, while wind energy is just wind energy.
What is the difference between solar power and wind power?
solar power gets energy from the sun using solar panelsbut wind power uses a wind turbine which catches the wind and spins to create energy/electricity
What sources of energy are wind and solar?
Wind and solar are renewable energy.
What is the connection between the sun's energy and the wind?

What is the source of energy that causes wind to blow?
The energy to create wind comes from solar energy.
What are some non polluting sources of energy?
Solar, Wind, Water. geothermal,tidal,ocean energy etc
What are the disadvantages of using wind energy and solar energy?
Solar energy is not available when the day is cloudy.Wind energy is not available when wind is not blowing.
What do wind energy and solar energy have in common?
Both wind and solar energy are pollution free. Both will be lasting longer.
Which form of energy is solar energy?
it a solar energy is wind,ice, or water
