Sustainable Business



Sempra Energy announced plans to construct a massive $5.5 billion wind farm in Baja California (Mexico). The wind farm, which could cover a total surface area of 294 hectares on completion, will comprise a thousand wind turbines. The wind farm will have a total capacity of between 1,000 megawatts (MW) and 1,200 (MW), in four areas in Mexico’s Baja California. Jacume, La Rumorosa, Cordillera Molina and Sierra de Juárez, which are located in the municipalities of Mexicali, Tecate and Ensenada, have been chosen for the first stages of the project.

i think the way to do it is to have "El Chivo Diablo" sit in front of a bank of turbines and have him spew forth his hot air and assorted blovialty.....that will create a bunch of free juice!

export it or save it for the Messicans...:light:

say - if he does that will he need a workers permit?
hahahaha...:lol::lol::lol:
