The answer my friend is blowin' in the wind

First of all, I would be very impressed if anyone gets the Post title reference (without cheating).  I found this article online and thought it was pretty interesting.  Let me know what you think.  Don't forget that answers should be in SEW format.

I think it is a shame that these new wind turbines cannot harness energy from a hurricane. I say this because in the article it says that the turbines were designed to harness energy from winds 6-45 miles per hour, and the weakest hurricanes are 75 miles per hour. Therefore, even though there is certainly alot of energy in a hurricane, the turbines would never be able to harness it.

I think this is Avery interesting article. I think this because it is really cool to see some of the ways that clean energy can be used to power many things like houses and factories. I know this because in the article it says the three bladed turbine is made to harnes power to the grid and non grid customers

I think everyone should have one of these micro wind turbines. This is because it can generate electricity in winds that are about 6.72-44.8 miles per hour. Also, the wind turbines weigh only 15 pounds and are portable, so it would not be a pain to have one of them. If everyone had one of these, we could save a lot of electricity by using the winds as electricity.

I believe that smart inventions like this are what map the world the ever-changing thing that it is. The Artisa Power will make it easier to provide power to people in areas that aren't wired for electricity. Being portable, the turbine would be easy to use on camping trips and things like that. I really hope environmentally friendly things like this start to spring up more so we will get a more efficient world.

I found the article interesting because i think that it's great that people are working on this type of stuff.The turbines can save much more energy. According to the article, the turbines are battery and recharagble. That is pretty useful.

@the orignal fake
I sgree with what you have to say because our world could use these and people who don't have wires near them really need this!

@AnnaDance2485
I really agree with your statement when you said that they save energy because of the recharable batteries because our earth is using way too much energy. The earth is using too much energy because people are not staying "green" because if the low use of solar pannels and more. But the good thing is that more and more "green" things are being made.That is the reason i agree with you.

I believe that Arista Power is a very successful company. This is because they introduced portable, three-bladed micro wind turbines. These turbines are 15 pounds with just two moving parts, yet, they can generate electrical power in winds from 3-20 meters per second. The turbines provide battery charging in remote places. Arsta Power is successful because they made and introduced this product to the world.

@Emerson18 I agree with you that everybody should own a portable, three-bladed micro wind turbine because they provide battery charging capability at remote and off-grid locations. The turbines can generate electrical power in winds from 3-20 meters per second, and only weigh 15 pounds which makes them portable. They would be beneficial to own.

I think is a great that people are making and getting wind turbines to help make more efficent. My reason I think this is because this can save money and also save lots of money on enrgy.Why i think this is a great idea is because this helps the enviroment and if we dont take care of or enviroment it wont be that good for us and our animals

i think these wind turbines will be great because they will create some clean quite energy that you do not put much effort into building.Also these are great because they do not harm the enviroent. this is true because they do not release pollution or hurt animals.

Trevor said...

I agree with Alex z because I thnk her statement that Aristarchus power is very sucessful is a true statement. I agree with you because these turbines can generate power. Of 3 to 20 miles an hour.

I think that this company is great because people on earth uses so much energy for television and batteries. The rechargable batteries i think are the beast because that is a big problem, people using too many batteries. This is why i think that this company is very succesful.

I think this will be a very successful product. You could hook it to the roof of an electric car, and charge the battery as you drive. This would reduce the time drivers spend charging their car. Then you could drive for a much longer time without having to worry about battery loss.

I agree with your comment. These turbines will help create energy and you only have to set it up. Also it is true that turbines don't release any pollution so it wont harm the environment. Then if more people and companies use them, pollution will go down and the ozone layer will get stronger.

I think that it is amazing that people can build a wind turbind that small because i thought they had to be big. i thought this becauses in pictures (like the one at ) they look so big. but i know that this isn't true because in the artical it says,"weighing 15lbs.and with just 2 moving parts, the Arista Power charger 300 line is desighned to generate electrical power in winds from 3-20 meters/second (6.72-44.8 miles/hour).

Well, these wind turbines can only help, but are not really necessary. They are not necessary because we already have other wind turbines out there that are generating the same type of power. But like I said, it can only help.
