Wind power is another way of producing electricity. (a) Although wind power
produces just 0.4% of the world’s electricity, many countries are building wind farms.
(b) because this has many advantages over other methods. Compared to a
power station using oil or coal, (c) for instance, a wind farm produces no air pollution
and wind itself will never run out. (d) However , a wind farm only works well
when it is built in the right place. Wind plants generate electricity only when the wind
blows, (e) so if there is no wind, there is no electricity. On the other hand, (f) while
there are many advantages, there are (g) olso some problems, (h) such as noise
and the way the turbines spoil the look of the country side. (i) as wind farms
are often built on mountains or near the sea, the people who visit these places often
fell that they have been spoilt by the wind turbines. One solution to this problem may
be to avoid building the farms on land, and where possible to build them on man-
made islands out at sea (j) instead . (k) While this is a solution for countries
with long coastlines, it is obviously not the answer everywhere. (l) even though
visitors to areas with wind farms usually complain about the noise and the spoilt view,
people who live nearby often get used to wind farms. There may (m) as be
problems with wildlife. Birds, (n) for example, are often killed by the turbines. (o)
While , there are problems with wind farms, they are clearly better for the
environment than most other forms of power station.
