Floating Wind Farms??

Germany has approved a massive plan to block off special zones offshore for wind farms. Interesting place to put them, but there is the some genius of it not blemishing the landscape on land, and the proposed project will generate enough power to function over 8 million homes.

Yet another example of how the rest of the world is moving forward towards an energy efficient future while us here in the good old US of A continue to sit back and run on dwindling oil supplies.

Sometimes its just flat out embarrassing to see how far behind we really are in situations such as Germany's offshore wind farms.
