It’s from this book. Apologies…my pinned post was originally part of a thread which referenced the book. It’s a great picture.

My students are on the college Facebook #WindTurbine #Energy #GreenSkills #SustainabilitySTEM #STEM #Engineering #TeachSDGs
Facebook post about the student project to install a wind turbine in the campus grounds. Three students with a turbine blade suspended from a string (checking that it’s balanced) Students and teachers stood on grass in front of trees practicing raising and lowering scaffolding poles which will support the turbine.

First assignment of the academic year for our #Engineering students was surveying the campus to identify how and where we should install our 3 small #wind turbines.

Developing #GreenSkills from day one 😀

Today’s #Sheltie adventure 😊
Black and white Shetland Sheepdog on a stony white rocky cliff covered in thin grass, overlooking a bay. The tide is out and the bay is mostly sand. View from the end of a rocky outcrop across sand towards land with trees on the other side of the bay. This gulleys of water bend through the sand. The sky is blue with white clouds.

This is very sloppy.

25 km SE of Barrow is near Fleetwood, not in the Irish Sea!
