What are the pro's and con's of wind power?

I'm looking for information for a research project on wind power.

Answer

Hello Jeff

A good pros and cons database to use is CQ Researcher. I would login to the OU Portal and find the Myers Library Online page and go to the link for the Online Library Databases and find CQ Research. I put wind power in the search box and got a very good report that includes overviews, background information and pros and cons related to your topic.

If you need more information on the topic of wind power, I went to Ebscohost and checkmarked the following databases; Academic Search Premier, Greenfile and Agricola. You will be able to search across them if you click continue. Once you have a search box do make sure too that your limit your search by checking the peer-review and scholarly boxes below the search box. I tried combining wind power or wind power AND pros and cons and only found 2 articles. If you want more articles then combine wind power AND wind energy together and you will find 1849 FT articles to choose from. I just did a search for wind power and found more than 2000 articles, so you would need to combine more terms to limit your search.

If you have any further questions about this topic. please email me back or call me at 785-248-2536.

Thanks.
