Build Wind Generator--Do It Now

Write it down in your "to do" list--build wind generator. Everyone is vitally involved in the move to cut pollution of our atmosphere. We all have been warned by scientists that we must change our ways and greatly cut down on our reliance on fossil fuels. If we do not do so the polluting gases we are pouring into the atmosphere will bring about climate changes which will have disastrous effects.

We are already seeing greater hurricane activity,huge forest fires and droughts. This can only get much worse if we continue in our present ever increasing use of oil,gas and coal to produce electric power and to power our vehicles. Alternative energy sources such as small wind generators are the individual consumers best way to personally reduce their carbon footprint.

We all need to become proactive in promoting the much needed changes. Governments are slow to act unless pushed. Imposing restrictions and taxes on the use of fossil fuels does not buy votes so many politicians are reluctant to take the lead. It is up to the consumer to lead the way by cutting his own carbon footprint.

One way to do this is to build a wind turbine. Individual power production may be small but if many people do it the total effect can be huge. It is possible to build a wind power generator at quite low cost. $100 or less will buy all the necessary parts to build a wind turbine. New or used auto parts are the main components and building wind powered turbines is actually a fairly easy project. No special tools are needed and the average home workshopper is quite capable of undertaking this project.
