overfishing? It is estimated that governments around the world give a total of about 30 to 40 billion dollars a year to help fishers keep their businesses running. Such money can help fishers by ships‚ fuel‚ and fishing equipment as well as for research and management of fisheries.

Renewable Energy Wind Abstract We have been harnessing the wind’s energy for hundreds of years. From old Holland to farms in the United States‚ windmills have been used for pumping water and grinding grain. Today‚ the windmill’s modern equivalent‚ a wind turbine‚ can use the wind’s energy to generate electricity. Wind turbines can be used as stand-alone applications‚ such as for pumping water or to help reduce homeowners’ electric bills‚ or they can be connected to a utility power grid
