Renewable Energy Sources

• Renewable energy sources will never run out. Most of them do damage the environment, but less than non-renewable energy sources. The trouble is they don't provide much energy and they're unreliable because they depend on the weather. 
  The renewables are: 
• Wind
• Waves
• Tides
• Hydroelectric
• Solar
• Geothermal
• Food
• Biofuels

Wind Power

• This involves putting lots of windmills up in exposed plases like on moors or round coasts
• Each wind turbine has its own generator inside it - the electricity is generated directly from the wind turning the blades, which turn the generator. 
• There's no pollution, except from when they're manufactured. 
• They do spoil the view though, you need about 1500 wind turbines to replace one coal-fired power station, and this would cover a lot of ground which would cause lots of visual…
