Why choose engineering as a career path? I believe engineers have the power to make this world a better place to live. This video was created to inspire current and future engineers to continue making this world a better place.
There is a lot more to this subject than I have covered in this video, this is just the basics. I have used the Wind Turbine Handbook as my primary reference material, it covers pretty much everything you need to know about wind turbines. If you are studying this subject academically I highly recommend it. You buy it on amazon here: http://www.amazon.com/Wind-Energy-Handbook-Tony-Burton/dp/0470699752
A huge shout-out to Wendover Productions for collaborating with me on this video. I highly recommend you head over to his channel and watch his videos and subscribe: https://www.youtube.com/user/Wendoverproductions

Thanks for watching! I actually had an early version of this ready last week. Which you can watch here on my second channel:
We are nearly at 100,000 subscribers! Thank you so much! Every year I set a goal for myself. In 2014 it was to win my Gaelic Football teams "Most Improved Player Award" and last year it was to learn how to animate. It's important to set goals for yourself and give yourself something to be proud of, but I couldn't have done this without your support!
Thanks to the vlogbrothers for sponsoring this video. Have been following their work for years, it feels great to be supported by my role models!
