Description of Our Community: “Feng Tou Shuei Wei” , which refers to the windy side and the end of water, is the most appropriate geographic description of Shengang Township. Shengang locates in the northwest of Changhua County. Its north is Dadu River and its west is Taiwan Ocean. Strong wind is a great advantage for wind power generation. We can see many huge wind turbines in the coastal areas. Some wind turbines were just set on the road of the industrial district and their spectacular looks attracted many tourists. Wind power is a good source of energy. Shengang should cherish the gift from God and make good use of it.

Project Description: Today, because global warming is getting worse, green energy is gradually rising. In recent years, the government has encouraged people to use renewable energy resources and wind is one of it. Wind power will be never run out of especially for Taiwan Island. The most important is that it is very clean, causes no pollution and can be widely used. This kind of energy not only reduces the occurrence of greenhouse effect but also lowers the problem of reject, radiation or carbon dioxide. In 2008, Taiwan Power Company planned to set up 23 wind turbines. Until now, 21 wind turbines have been set up. Their spectacular scene attracted a lot of tourists to take a look at them. Though wind power has many advantages, it also has disadvantages. We want to explore the nature of wind power as well as its advantages and disadvantages by joining International CyberFair. Furthermore, we also want to look for the appropriate place to set up wind power in our campus.
