Senior Independent Project: Wind
From distributing seeds and moisture to powering the navigation of sailing ships, wind has been a necessity for the progression of life on Earth. This body of work is an exploration of the essence and importance of this invisible force. The book expresses the cultural, biological, and technological significance of wind, its emotional imprints on the human psyche, and ideas about utilizing wind power for functional use and renewable energy. I hope to make the audience more aware of their environment as well as technology we can implement to use wind as a renewable energy source.
Note: The paper used in this book was created with wind power (Beckett Concept Desert Haze, by Mohawk). The emissions produced in the manufacturing process have been offset with Verified Emissions Reduction credits, effectively making this paper carbon neutral. This paper contains 100% post-consumer waste fibers, is process-chlorine free, and is certified by Green Seal and the Forestry Stewardship Council.
