Best Answer

Wind power is renewable, meaning it will never run out because it is widely available and as long as there are seasons there will be wind; it produces no greenhouse gases like the fossil fuels and it requires little land to build the wind farms.

However, wind power can be unreliable as the strength of winds changes day to day; it is unsightly, especially in country areas and the construction costs are quite high.
