After suffering a punishing year because of low natural gas prices, the wind power industry is keeping close watch on the prospect that water pollution from hydraulic fracturing may lead to regulation of shale gas drilling.
FORBES: Wind Power's Future May Depend On Gas Fracking's Fate: Panel
Members of the project hope that future habitants on the planet will be able to harness the wind, water deposits and soil to become self-sufficient.
One of the first wind chill measures, known as Siple-Passel, was based on observing how quickly bottles of water froze in the Antarctic wind.
And all this interspersed by hours adrift on the river, planks and ropes gently creaking in the wind, the water dark and cool, the night sky clear above.
There was another long delay on the par-3 16th after a gust of wind dunked Manassero's tee shot in the water.
Hurricanes thrive on water and wind -- specifically, warm ocean temperatures and vapor swirled up into the atmosphere by ocean surface winds.
One turbine can produce up to 1, 000 liters of water every day, depending on the level of humidity, temperature and wind speeds, says Janin.
The manner in which sails are designed to capture wind meanwhile ensures that any design, painting or print is constantly moving and changing shape when on the water, altering the appearance of the artwork in the process.
The centre, which opened in 1975, contains a range of interactive displays on wind, water and solar power, green transport and energy efficiency.

The tide has changed and a south wind forces me to land this particular day on the shore near the Tomales Bay Oyster Company, which sits across the water from Inverness.
Meanwhile, China could well be on its way to blowing the U.S. out of the water when it comes to harnessing wind energy.
