Global Wind Day 2009
Monday June 15 is Global Wind Day, an awareness campaign for the promotion of wind energy worldwide, organized by European Wind Energy Association (EWEA) and the Global Wind Energy Council (GWEC). It is being celebrated in 25 countries, promoting awareness of wind energy worldwide and inviting the public to celebrate wind power as a near-term solution to global climate change and a driver for economic growth in local communities.
2009 will be a crucial year for the fight against climate change. Decision makers from all over the world will meet in Copenhagen in December to discuss the post-Kyoto protocol agreement. EWEA and GWEC say the aim of Global Wind Day is to draw attention to wind power in the run-up to those climate negotiations in Copenhagen.
The message is global: wind power works – it tackles climate change, it improves energy dependence on fossil fuels, and it is an intelligent investment.

Nice to meet you.
