Are wind turbines good for the environment and why?

Yes they are, because they use non polluting wind power and provide energy that might otherwise require polluting sources of energy, such as coal, oil, or gas. The wind does not always blow enough to turn the blades, but, it does move enough to produce energy most of the time. Wind turbines do not pollute the wind, and they do minor damage to birds and bats. Nothing is perfect, and wind power is the energy that Probably does the least amount of damage to the environment, while providing an excellent source of energy most of the time.


Why do roofs blow off during a tornado?

How do you build a foley wind machine?

To build a foley wind machine, you'll need a flat, sturdy surface such as a board or piece of plywood. Attach a length of fabric, like burlap or a heavy curtain, to the board with one edge secured and the other edge free to flap. Use a fan to blow air across the fabric, creating a wind sound that can be adjusted by changing the fan's speed or the fabric's tension. Experiment with different materials and positions to achieve various wind effects.
