TGoG Podcast 033 – The Benefits of Wind Power

March 11, 2013 @ 12:50 By Gavin Webber Leave a Comment

TGOG+podcast+logo+new+1400+v2During the Sustainable Living Festival, I had the pleasure to attend a talk given by members of the Victorian Wind Alliance.

The presenters talked about the benefits of Wind Power and the real facts behind this type of renewable energy.

I really enjoyed the details within the talks regarding community ownership, and community support.

I recorded two of the presenters which I have included in this episode with their permission.  You will hear from Dan Cass from Hepburn Wind, and Peter Reefman from Portland Sustainability Group, who both had very interesting talks.

You can find the Victorian Wind Alliance website at http://www.vicwind.org.au/

Love the power of the wind!

Also, you may have noticed a new feature on this blog.  I have added a sidebar widget that lets you record and send me a voicemail, via the widget if you so desire.

It is a very simple process as long as you have a microphone connected to your PC, which most do these days.  You can leave me questions or suggestions, that I may talk about in podcasts or write about in the blog.  I will always ask permission from you before posting your content.

If you enjoyed the podcast, please pop over to iTunes and rate it and leave a review. You can also do the same within Stitcher Radio if you use that service.  It would help me out so much, and elevate the ratings so that others can find out about the podcast and learn about sustainable living in the ‘burbs.

You can subscribe to the show via RSS or iTunes or Stitcher for your portable device.  Just use the subscription buttons below.

So, don’t be shy.  Keep the questions and suggestions coming.
