I was reading this cool book to my 5 year old son the other night and it was about planets and had all these neat facts. It said the rotational speed of the Earth at the equator is about 1,038 miles per hour. We are looking into ways to harness energy from the wind via wind turbines, the sun, via solar panels, the oceans for wave and tidal energy, green algae energy, underground with geothermal energy, but why not tap into a non stop moving force such as our planet?
If the earth is constantly rotating and at 1,038 MPH, can we tap into that constant energy flow? Look, I do not have $10 million to hold a contest for the person who can come up with a way to harness the energy of the earth's movement, but if you do have a way, you can submit it to the X Prize Foundation. They have a $10 million. See the video of the earth rotating below, and I hope this will inspire a great inventor to come up with a solution. - Stay Green!
