Investors including Warren Buffet and T. Boone Pickens have bet big on wind energy. With one environmental disaster after another, the push for clean energy is global.
The European Wind Energy Association (EWEA) reports wind energy alone could meet 28.5% of Europe´s electricity demand by 2030. Already the Member States´ National Renewable Energy Action Plans show wind energy providing over 14% of the EU´s electricity by 2020. Full News:

In a recent article from the Earth Institute entitled "Wind: The Center of the Plan B Energy Economy"
Earth Policy Institute's Plan B to save civilization has four components: stabilizing climate, restoring earth's natural support systems, stabilizing population, and eradicating poverty. At the heart of the plan is a crash program to develop 4,000 gigawatts (4 million megawatts) of wind generating capacity by 2020, enough to cover over half of world electricity consumption in the Plan B economy. This will require a near doubling of capacity every two years, up from a doubling every three years over the last decade.
This climate-stabilizing initiative would mean the installation of 2 million wind turbines of 2 megawatts each. Manufacturing 2 million wind turbines over the next 10 years sounds intimidating—until it is compared with the 70 million automobiles the world produces each year.
