Developing world looks to alternative energy
In Serra do Talhado Brazil a 90-foot wind turbine powers a groundwater pump lifting water 300 feet to a 780 gallon tank. The village, once tied to rain, joins a broader push by developing nations to adopt renewables as 2.4 billion people lack electricity. Governments, banks, and tech advances push wind and solar as affordable paths, with China and Brazil expanding projects despite political and fossil fuel resistance.
