  • Wind turbines are very compatible with agricultural practices, and this has led companies such as John Deere to actively assist farmers in developing wind as a way of diversifying their incomes. Although a wind farm can cover a wide area, the turbines themselves generally only occupy five per cent of the land area, leaving the remaining 95 per cent for conventional uses. Farmers routinely graze cattle or farm crops right up to the base of the turbines. While some have expressed concern over potential conflicts between wind turbines and crop dusters, experience has shown that it is possible for the two to operate side by side. The energy production of a single wind turbine varies (naturally) with wind speed. Unfortunately, this has led some to believe that wind is an "intermittent" ener...

"We know that this is a worldwide phenomenon. It's not just happening in Alberta. It's not just happening in the eastern United States. It's not just happening in Manitoba. It happens at wind farms all over the place, but there is variation between sites. Some sites have higher (death) rates than other sites... . We're still not completely sure why we're finding all those bats in those specific places. Willis's study, to be completed by 2010, will examine whether bats are actively attracted to wind turbines and other tall structures during the migration season. Researchers will use detectors to measur...

  • For Canadian drivers who care about the environment - not to mention fuel economy and safety - there is no easier way to contribute to cleaner air than measuring tire pressure," says Glenn Maidment, President of the RAC. "Gaining the best possible tire-related fuel economy and performance is easy for motorists who take action. All it requires is some basic knowledge and five minutes each month to perform a few simple procedures to ensure your tires are properly inflated. "They like to go after the plastic, rubbery and vinyl kinds of materials," he says. "One sees the other one doing it, and the other comes over and tries, and it just becomes a group activity to the detriment of property, unfortunately." "You could end up having an animal sitting in the seat beside you," he says. "It j...
