And unlike coal or oil, this resource is totally renewed each day. So how can we harness this incredible amount of energy, and is it possible to create a world powered entirely by wind? Rebecca Barthelmie and Sara Pryor dig into the science of wind turbine technology. [Directed by Gavin Edwards, Movult, narrated by Alexandra Panzer, music by Stephen LaRosa].\n
