Wind Generator: Sustainable Living student project

You had me up to the point when you started talking about meditation.... *sigh*

You might want to watch our video "A deeper green" by our Sustainable Living professor Lonnie Gamble. He says that the major problem isn't that we need more technology, but that we need to strengthen our inner connection with all of life, so that we naturally want to protect and nurture the environment. And that's why we need to transcend -- that's how nourish that deep connection.

Where can I find specific plans or blueprints on the generator itself? things like wire size, magnet size, placement and how to wire it all together? I sure would appreciate any help I can get. Thanks.

Check out the links we posted under the video description, up to the right of the video window.

That's very fantastic. Do you have any other sustainable projects? I want to make a project which can sustain the world.

Our Sustainable Living students are working on about a dozen projects right now. Check out our website the link is up to the right of the video window.

If you really want to sustain the world, it's going to take more than technology. Check out our videos by Lonnie Gamble, one of our Sustainable Living profs. He talks about how important it is to renew our connection with natural law.

The term "sustainable" is deceitful; nothing is "sustainable"; one of the basic laws of science is you never get as much work out of a machine as you put into it.....

"Sustainable" doesn't mean the same as a perpetual motion machine. Sustainable means that it uses natural resources without depleting them. Burning oil isn't sustainable because there's a limited supply. But putting up a wind turbine or a solar panel doesn't use up the wind or the sun -- you can use them all you want without diminishing their power.

That quote is for perpetual motion enthusiasts, and is out of context here. These run on wind , the same as your car runs on gas, or deisel feul. the feul here is wind. The efficiency at best is 53% for the bets limit and 35% fior the machine. Your car only propells you with the remaining 5% after friction.

great
