Why can’t we capture the wind that produces hurricanes. This can be a great source of energy. This is possible and the benefits include:
1. Reducing the effects of hurricane on the land
2. Producing energy for consumption
This can be done. It is all a matter of doing research to enhance the processes. I have a couple of ideas and I think it can be done. You see how much damage hurricanes cost. We need to find a way to turn the table on hurricanes.
You can find the answer to that question (and more) at the Tropical Cyclone FAQ. Try
