The wind farms were created to use for an alternative use to burning coal for electricity. “ It would do so without producing local air pollution or the greenhouse gases that causes global warming” (Layzer‚ 421).

It keeps the air from being polluted and is a step in the direction we need to make to finally make a change with the environment. “Cape wind could offset more than 1 million tons
