The exception would be if you have an international flight, and are making the connection in a different country than you started in, then you may have to clear customs at the connecting airport rather than the final destination.n that case you have to get your bags, clear customs, re-check your bags (or at least drop them off at specific location, depending on the airport), and clear security again. When the airline tells you to check in 2 hours before departure, they mean it regardless of whether you're checking bags or not.
Wind energy is one of the fastest growing sources of electricity in the world. The United States surpassed Germany last year to become the world leader in wind energy installed; 121,188 MW of wind energy were installed globally by the end of 2008, with that number expected to increase to 152,000 MW by the end of 2009.
Renewable energy allows you to tap into natural resources that are replenished as part of the normal life cycle. Cut a tree down to burn for heat, and that tree is gone forever. Tap into the wind with a turbine to generate electricity, and the wind continues to blow. The Union of Concerned Scientists suggests the following clean renewable energy sources: Wind Power. The U.S. can produce more than 10 times its energy needs through wind power, one of the fastest-growing energy sources. Turbines use wind to generate electricity without creating pollutants. Currently, this is one of the least expensive alternative fuel sources available.
