1)      Design a blog upload the video pictures

At present, wind energy is mainly used to produce electricity through wind turbines connected to the large electric power distribution networks. Wind farms built on land are an increasingly cheaper and more competitive source of energy, and even cheaper in many regions than other conventional energy sources.2 3 Small wind farms can, for example, provide electricity in remote regions and isolated that do not have access to the electricity grid, like solar photovoltaic energy. The wind energy moves a propeller and by means of a mechanical system the rotor of a generator, usually an alternator, is rotated, which produces electrical energy. When it is used to produce electricity it is called a wind turbine generator.

2)      Green productos

Either for a product that already exists in the market or if it is still in the process of creation, we can think of it as a greener product if: IT HAS BEEN CONSIDERED ITS LIFE CYCLE. Evaluating at each stage of the process where it can generate a negative impact on the environment and how processes could be optimized to mitigate this impact. Among the considerations that must be analyzed in the life cycle of the product we have:

-The acquisition and processing of raw materials.

-The processes of production or manufacturing and distribution

               From the design, the product has a philosophy of reducing, reusing and recycling.

a.       Handles more environmentally friendly materials, even in some cases, such as those that bear     

b.      The Cradle to Cradle seal can be beneficial for the medium itself.

c.       In the process of acquisition and processing of raw materials mitigates the negative impact on    the environment: avoids the use of chemicals, reduces water consumption, protects natural habitats, etc.

It develops new materials: it contemplates for its elaboration materials with less environmental impact such as bioplastics, coming from natural, compostable resources.

Develop new technologies: renewable energies and LED lighting are some examples.

·         Develops new business models: it is about creating win-win businesses between    consumers, companies and environment.

Make the effort that your product that comes to the market is green or greener than the rest, should materialize in a good communication of it, since it will be a more economically competitive product and will provide the environmental and social added value that is behind. In addition, it is necessary to understand the possible customer who will buy our product since not only it will do it to solve some specific needs (for example if you need paper to write, you will go to the stationery) but you are also aware of the medium and believe that it is more interesting to buy a product for that added value mentioned above (so that choose among all the paper packages the least environmental impact).

3) Problems and solutions

a.       Wind energy is, according to a study that we have already discussed in this blog, the most efficient and ecological way to produce electricity, however it has a big problem. The wind does not always blow and when it does not blow it can not produce electricity.

b.      green products: Humanity is living confident but is wrong in the sense of believing that natural resources are infinite. We are contabilidad "differential" because we use a 50% more than the planet Earth can give us. We devour resources tremendously. The future is discouraging if you do not change course, it would be two planets that we will need, (if they are not more) and if we think that by 2050, when a population of 9 billion requires food, energy, housing and water along with the coexistence with the rest of the living beings of the planet ... the situation turns ant color.
