Windmill energy
Living the Country Life Radio Program
Green living is a popular concept, but besides helping the environment, it can also add some green to your wallet. Farmers and rural dwellers have used windmills for centuries to power well pumps, and today's homeowners can use them to cut their utility bills by about half. Wind turbines aren't cheap, though, so it's important to do your homework and see how long it will take for your investment to pay for itself and start saving you money.
