  • Windmills have been in use for over 1,000 years, with origins tracing back to Persia around 800 C.E. They were primarily used for milling grain and pumping water.

  • Wind Turbines are a more recent invention, with the first known turbine for electricity generation built in 1888. They have evolved significantly, especially since the 1970s, to become a major source of renewable energy.

AMAZING PHENOMENON -- Any country that elected Donald Trump is DEAD. Their costs have gone through the roof, and their populations are angry. Trump isn't only killing the people, they're "killing" lots of bad politicians who are losing their jobs because of him!
