How does wind energy cause pollution?

Wind energy doesn't pollute the air like power plants that rely on combustion of fossil fuels, such as coal or natural gas, which emit particulate matter, nitrogen oxides, and sulfur ... However, building just a few already-proposed transmission lines could significantly reduce the costs of expanding wind energy. read more

Wind energy doesn’t cause pollution. But human does. To make the wind turbine, we need to build the factory to make the turbine, build the turbine base, and the wind fan. read more

Environmental Impacts of Wind Power Harnessing power from the wind is one of the cleanest and most sustainable ways to generate electricity as it produces no toxic pollution or global warming emissions. read more

The natural gas industry has produced a new report which claims that increased use of wind energy cause coal-fired power plants to “cycle” unconventionally and thereby cause an increase in the pollution levels they traditionally produce along Colorado’s Front Range. read more
