New Mexico ranks #12 in wind resources in the United States. Harnessing a fraction of these abundant resources would help provide the solutions to global warming AND create thousands of jobs for New Mexicans, generate tax dollars, and re-energize local economies.
Wind energy is already an economical source of electricity, and thousands of New Mexicans already get their power from wind.
