According to an article in The Earth Times, Queen Elizabeth II has recently bought the world’s largest windmill for an undisclosed amount (which I’m guessing is ridiculously expensive).
This windmill is going to be built by Clipper Windpower, a wind turbine manufacturer based out of Carpinteria, California.
The best thing about the windmill: it will reduce over 724,000 tons of carbon dioxide in its lifetime. That’s because it’s going to be the length of two soccer fields and will be 574 feet high.
This is a great move for the Queen, who is proving that money isn’t the only green thing that royalty is concerned with.
This is really awesome! It's nice to see that people who have the money to spend aren't just buying the ridiculous carbon offsets, but trying realistic approaches as well.
Oh my, now I know everyone is going Green and I feel even prouder of my efforts to try going Green, It isn't easy but once you are into it, you feel good about it and know you are doing something great. I can only imagine the cost of that windmill :)
