Blowin' In The Wind

Blowin' in the Wind

Buckminster Fuller, the inventor and philosopher, says that the answer to the energy crisis on the planet earth is literally blowing in the wind.

Fuller states that the movement of the winds and air currents along the surface of the earth is caused, at least indirectly, by the sun. He says that his formulas show that the building of windmills and similar devices is the most efficient method of using solar energy, a non-polluting power source.

Fuller calculates that there's plenty of wind energy for everybody: He says that if every person on earth used up the enormous amounts of energy now required by Americans, and even if the world population doubles by the year 2000, human beings would still use up only one-seven-millionth the energy provided the earth by the sun each day.
