Marvel of modern engineering!

A 133-meter-long wind turbine blade was just loaded onto a ship at Yangzhou in China - For comparison, the Eiffel Tower is only 330 meters tall!

The IEA expects renewables to rise sharply, to over 17 000 terawatt-hours (TWh) by the end of the 2020s. That's the equivalent of all the electricity used by China and the US combined!

A chart with lines showing different renewable energy sources. the one marked all renewables goes from less than 20% in the year 2000 to over 45% by 2030. Hydro falls slightly, solar rises from almost nothing to 15 as does wind.

Here's the full-sized version of my profile picture and banner, with alt-text. it is the Bangui Windmills Farm in Ilocos Norte. Found on Wikipedia, uploaded by user Ranieljosecastaneda.
A beach with a line of white wind turbines stretching into the distance. The sky and the sea are both a deep blue. In the foreground is a human figure, possibly in a wetsuit. It looksto me like they are saluting the wind turbines. And of course I can understand that, since I'm also a big metal fan
