A new dam creates a new lake in the mountains. We lose a lot of beautiful country-trees, rivers, wild animals. But perhaps we have to accept that. The result is energy without pollution. And this energy will last forever.
Wind power
Windmills were first used in Iran 1.300 years ago to produce food. Today there is a new job for windmillsto produce electricity. They are now called 'wind generators'. Only the USA has a big programme of wind power. But there are fantastic possibilities. A recent study showed that in the European Union there are good places for 400.000 wind generators. There is only one problem: some people think they are ugly. What do you think?
Solar power
Have you got a solar-powered calculator? You never have to put in a new battery. Has your house or school got solar panels? In sunny countries they are very common: in the Mediterranean island of Cyprus 90% of houses have solar panel. That means free hot water. And it means no pollution.
But can we produce electricity with the power of the sun? The answer
is yes. With mirrors we can corcentrate the heat of the sun in one place. We can heat water, and make steam. And the steam can drive an electric generator.
