  • Windy: Hi there, everybody I just blew in to tell you Burning all those fossil fuels is fouling up your air It's that old oil addiction And according to predictions If you don't fix this condition, Earth is headed who-knows-where But I've got one clean answer You can find most anywhere It's me, the wind. You can feel it right now Blowing in your hair Female Kites: The winds of change are blowing And it's time that we got going Windy: You can use me and reuse me And I won't pollute your air. All I need's a partner To help solve this mess you're in. So meet my friend the windmill, And watch me take him for a spin. Now I've been spinning windmills Since ancient history. Persians put us both to work 250 years B.C. Crusaders and the Romans Saw the work that we could do And soon windmills were sprouting up Wherever strong winds blew Windmill: When my friend the wind Spins me round and round and round My turbines turn and spin out power They're generating lots and lots of megawatts To send through my tower A watt's a measurement of electrical energy. It takes 40 watts to light this bulb. A thousand watts is called a kilowatt. The meter on your house counts kilowatts by the hour, and the average house uses 6- to 9,000 kilowatt hours a year. Windy: Now, windmills hook up to a grid To share their energy Along with lots of other plants That makes electricity Most power plants within the grid Burn fossil fuels like coal They're making so much soot and smoke Female Kites: The winds of change are blowing And it's time that we got going Windy: You can use me and reuse me And I won't pollute your air. The reason I'm reliable is That star we call the sun He heats me up and cools me down And keeps me on the run Easterlies, westerlies Chinooks and Santa Annas Offshore winds, onshore winds Sometimes I go bananas Heat that once escaped to space Is trapped by greenhouse gases The CO2 and waste builds up And Earth gets no free passes One result of global warming Is warmer ocean water So hurricanes and other storms Get bigger than they ought to Windy and Windmill: If everyone in every house Took care to save some watts We'd cut all this pollution down By lots and lots and lots Get all your friends to join you And make sure they do their part And we'll keep making energy That's cleaner from the start Female Kites: The winds of change are blowing And it's time that we got going Windy: You can use me and reuse me Female Kites: You can use him and reuse him Windy: You can use me and reuse me Female Kites: You can use him and reuse him
