Which type of power source has killed or harmed the most people per unit of energy produced?
Over the course of time the burning of wood in fireplaces or open fires has probably killed more people than any other energy source per unit of energy produced. It has, after all, been in use for over 1.5 million years since Homo Erectus first learned to control it.
Wood fires:
- Shed sparks and embers that ignite dwellings
- Shed sparks and start other fires (e.g. forest fires)
- Are a hazard to the incautious and small children
- Create smoke that is carcinogenic. In cultures that did not develop chimneys the smoke would buildup in the living areas causing black lung disease
- Cause soot build up in chimneys which which could ignite, burning down homes
- Produce smoke in urban areas which is a lung irritant
- Create carbon monoxide in unventilated areas

If windmills dont work how do people who use wind energy still get electricity?
A windmill produced electricity while the wind blows. It may produce energy when the wind blows and people don't need it. People don't need all the energy a windmill produces all the time but they may need energy when the wind is not blowing. Windmills are therefore linked up to battery systems and charge the batteries when the wind is blowing, energy is being produced, and nobody is using it. When people need energy and the wind is not blowing (no power is being produced) they use power from the batteries.
