Unlike a power plant that requires coal to be extracted and transported using huge amounts of natural resources like fossil fuels, water etc. in the process, wind is available easily and naturally all around the surface of the earth. Therefore, it significantly reduces the use of natural resources, and also the cost, time and effort involved in the extraction process.

benefits of a dam

Dams provide a range of economic, environmental, and social benefits, including recreation, flood control, water supply, hydroelectric power, waste management, river navigation, and wildlife habitat. Dams produce over 103,800 megawatts of renewable electricity and meet eight to twelve percent of the Nation’s power needs. Hydropower is considered clean because it does not contribute to global warming, air pollution, acid rain, or ozone depletion.

1 HR LUNCHthe eco lightbulb

Energy saving light bulbs use up to 80% less electricity than standard bulbs but are capable of producing the same amount of light. Using less energy to power your lights means that our homes produce less carbon dioxide emissions which are harmful to our environment and are one of the main causes of climate change. Many energy efficient bulbs will last up to 10 times as long as a traditional bulb.
