How can we expand wind energy in Europe? | Climate Now debate highlights

The EU has put its energy behind the promise of wind power. With initiatives like REPowerEU increasing the target for wind-generated electricity, the next decade will hopefully see massive growth in the production of wind farms.

Why is wind power such an important source of renewable energy, how and where will we install these new wind farms, and how can we counter any negative side effects the energy source brings?

These questions and more were at the heart of Euronews' latest Debate, hosted by the team behind Climate Now - a monthly programme giving you the latest climate facts from the Copernicus Climate Change Service, analyse the trends and explain how our planet is changing.

Meet our panelists:
- Morten Helveg Petersen, Member of the European Parliament & Rapporteur on Offshore Renewable Strategy
- Dr. Samantha Burgess, Deputy Director of the Copernicus Climate Change Service
- Carlo Zorzoli, Head of Business Development of Enel Green Power
- Kenneth Thomsen, Head of Wind Turbine Design Division at the Danish Technical University
- Dr. Hannah Bloomfield, Research Associate of Climate Risk Analytics at the University of Bristol

There are two solutions for more wind energy.

- We humans Fart more in public places.

- We warm up Earth’s Core and surface which leads to more Earthquakes, Tsunami’s and Tornado’s.

A would be Churchill acting, very un-Churchilllike, just to save his own skin. What a nut!

how to expand wind? are you kidding, just build the bloody things.

If governments stop subsidizing fossil fuels then it would really motivate people to switch to renewables. Wind power is the cheapest form of energy available.

❤️🌟 In recent years, disasters have occurred frequently and anomalies have appeared one after another, You must confess your sins and repent, I hope that those who have not yet trusted in Jesus and God can trust in Jesus and God as soon as possible, Confess your sins and repent as soon as possible.2000 years ago, light came to the world, Jesus Christ came to the world.The Word became flesh and appeared before people's eyes.He was crucified for the sins of people.He was resurrected on the third day, and then He ascended to heaven and sat at the right hand of God. If you sincerely trust Jesus Christ and accept Him as the Savior of your life, you will receive the Holy Spirit.Then, you must obey the Holy Spirit, rely on the guidance of the Holy Spirit to act and behave, and be a person who pleases God.

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law. —Galatians 5 : 22 - 23
Don’t delay, you should immediately trust Jesus Christ and God!

You people should be ashamed, GENESIS 8:22 While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease. (Will you stand before GOD and say this is not true?) 2 CHRONICLES 7:14 If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.
