Supporters of renewable energy (in particular, wind energy) sound the alarm. The fact is that scientists have already really determined that wind flow in the northern hemisphere of the Earth has significantly weakened, for example, compared with 1979, it decreased by 67 percent.
It is not by chance that Chinese experts thoroughly set about studying given problem: after all, in the Middle Kingdom wind farms built more than anywhere in the world. But it is in Asia 80 percent of all windmills showed a 30 percent power reduction. True, in Europe, these figures are not much it’s better. North America suffered the least in this regard.
Analysts at the Chinese Academy of Sciences are currently looking for reasons such unpleasant changes, scientists from other countries help them in this, also surprised by the decrease in wind flow in our hemisphere.

The main reason, experts say, may be the windmills themselves, which are in large quantities delivered just on the paths of the main air currents, that is, among the steppes and fields, most inhibiting the natural movement of air masses. This is already opponents of the “green” energy have long been saying, considering it not the most a successful trick from the oil and gas magnates of the world. Their arguments are simple: why were these magnates so frightened at one time experiments with unknown energy of Nikola Tesla and completely calm in relation to solar and wind energy?
The second reason for the decrease in wind flow, scientists call CO2 emissions increase, which fundamentally changes the whole ecology planets, including the distribution of air masses. However scientists University of Colorado at Boulder believes that the reasons for this there can be many situations – a whole complex, and therefore it is necessary look not for why the winds are weakening, but ways to solve this problem using modern technology, for example, reduced efficiency wind farms can be offset by an increase in capacity turbines.
True, all this is a very costly process, which, like show the latest research on green energy, doesn’t pay off yourself. It is no coincidence that Japan returns to nuclear and coal thermal power plants. And this despite the fact that the “green” blame The land of the rising sun in betrayal against the world ecology. But the USA has already reached for Japan. And the point here, I think, is not the current owner of the White House Trump, who is allegedly scandalous refuses the Prague climate agreement, revives the country’s coal mining industry, returns TPPs operating on solid fossil fuels, and even decides to end the fight by forgiving toxic emissions at these stations. If the windmills were so effective and also safe for the climate of the planet, as their presented “green”, it is unlikely that Japan and the United States, where they can count money is better than other countries, they would refuse windmills in favor of, in in general, obsolete coal-fired power plants. Something is wrong here …
Meanwhile, the wind in the Northern Hemisphere is blowing more and more quietly, not wanting to twist the countless windmills that bring ordinary the inhabitants of, say, the same Germany (see this video), alone only problems …
