Continuing last post The two faces of wind force- Part 1. There are benefits and hazards of increasing or decreasing of wind force in all geographical areas and human activities. In the sea more intensity and height of waves, more erosion on coastal areas, more increasing of evaporation. In the Rural areas more devastating events on cultivated area as the easy propagation of fire. In the cities more buildings destroyed, more dead people,cars destroyed by hurricanes that carry them or fall of trees.This type of event are been solved by help of alerts on communication media. Perhaps the area with good perspectives is the wind power, despite of the possible adaptation of wind turbines (i.e, aerodynamic design of blades) or the risk of decreasing wind in some geographical areas due to climate changes.
