Part A) Wind Energy

Definition

The wind is a source that provides us with unlimited energy that is not only unharmful for our environment as it does not give off carbon dioxide or sulphur dioxide but is also free of cost too (Johnson, 1985). This source is used to generate mechanical energy which can be converted into electricity using a generator (Department of Energy, 2014). To make this happen, wind turbines are used as they have angled blades attached to their revolving shank. These angled blades are caused to turn around the rotor as wind collides with them that causing the generator to spin due to which electricity is generated (Department of Energy, 2014).

Relation to Social Development

The most significant aspect of wind energy is that it is a clean source of energy and is also renewable. This is because it does not pollute the air we breathe in as it does not involve the burning of fossil fuels and power is sent across the grids by utilizing the energy that is being produced by the bright shining sun and blowing wind (Office of Energy Efficiency & Renewable Energy, 2017). Hence, this energy has positive effects on the economy and environment and ultimately on our health as it does not release harmful gases into the atmosphere. This lowers the chances of smog, greenhouse gases, or acid rain from little to no. These are the reasons that lead to wind energy becoming a significant part of the world energy system (Johnson, 1985). So, wind energy is related to social development as it can affect the economy and the health of the people due to its efficient performance.

Mastering Course Learning Objective

Understanding the concept of wind energy is essential to mastering the course because it tells about the several reasons for an individual’s health to be positively affected by it. Petroleum, coal and nuclear energy pose serious environment-related issues. Wind energy is far better than nuclear as it protects individuals from various health hazards (Johnson, 1985).

Academic Publication

The academic resource is written by Gary L. Johnson (1985). The author introduces the Wind Energy system and follows it with its history and how it is better for the individuals when compared with other sources of energy like nuclear, coal, etc.

Non-Academic Publication

The non-academic resource is written by the Department of Energy (2014 - 2017). In this article, the author demonstrates the working of the Wind Energy System and also lists its advantages.

Personal Quote

“Utilization of sources that lead to the exploitation of the environment must be stopped as it would lead to serious health issues and natural disasters.”

Borrowed Quote

“It is time for a sustainable energy policy which puts consumers, the environment, human health, and peace first.” - Dennis Kucinich
