2010 Renewable Energy Wind Power 
Union of Concerned Scientists
JUNE 15, 2022
We at the Union of Concerned Scientists think a lot about wind power. In honor of Global Wind Day , here’s a roundup of what we’re seeing and what we’ve been thinking—five facts about wind energy to keep in mind as you celebrate, or at least make note, on June 15. Wind power is big, and getting bigger.

I came across several articles on my home country lately and thought it was the occasion to keep everyone updated on how the French energy transition is going on. First thing first, I am very disappointed that the Socialists running the country did so little on renewable energy sources during their mandate. click to enlarge.

Advocates of renewable energy have argued since the 1970s that the variable, weather-dependent nature of sunlight and wind is a modest obstacle at best to relying on 100 percent renewables. Some have argued that weather-dependent energies would, paradoxically, make electricity even more reliable.

Voters in Los Angeles County recognized the critical need to address climate change when they overwhelmingly rejected Proposition 23 — the 2010 ballot measure that would have suspended California’s landmark global warming law. In fact, many people, millions, are suffering already.”. Even the current system of California and U.S.
