You may have to watch this video twice to
"get it." I'll admit, I did. :-)

When we started New England Breeze, we
though the small residential wind turbines
would keep us busy. But an unexpected thing has
happened, we keep getting requests for bigger
and bigger turbines.
In our hunt for "campus" sized turbines,
we've found one we really like.
Made in
Saint-Jean-Port-Joli, Québec, the EnergiePGE
20/35 is a 35 kilowatt downwind turbine
(faces away from the wind)
with three 34-foot blades. It can be mounted
on an 80-foot guy-wire supported tower or a
120-foot self supporting lattice tower.
Depending on your site, this machine will
make anywhere from 75,000 to 150,000
kilowatt-hours per year. And since the rotor
turns at only 35 revolutions per minute, it
is quiet.
Bill and I stood under the machine while it
was running and could not hear it. (and no we
are not going deaf :-)

Turn off the lights, wear a sweater, keep blanket on the couch, unplug unnecessary appliances, add insulation, take shorter showers, walk instead of drive, group your errands, inflate your tires, grow your own food, eat locally-produced food, recycle, use your most efficient vehicle, get a hybrid vehicle, wash your clothes in cold water, use a clothesline instead of the dryer, print with narrower margins, buy less, use both sides of the page, compost, install a renewable energy system... Bill and I wish you a low carbon holiday season...
