As you should know, the reason we are in Germany is because of renewable energy, specifically Solar (Sonnenenergie). In Germany, about 10% of it energy is obtained from renewable sources - Wind (Windenergie), Solar and Biomass (Biomasse). This is quite an achievement.Wind energy makes up the bulk of this (60%), and the landscape is in some places dominated by the wind turbines. Many of the Germans have complained about how ugly they look, but Nathan likes the look of them. Jo agrees with the Germans!
Above is a picture of a wind turbine. It doesn't look like much in a photo, but up close they are REALLY big. Can you see Nathan in the picture? If not, here is a close-up of the base. Impressive, aren't they?
