Good idea: wind turbines made from wood
https://www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-67718719
According to Modvion, the Swedish start-up that has just built the world's tallest wooden turbine tower, using wood for wind power is the future.
It's 150m (492ft) to the tip of the highest blade and we are the first journalists to be invited to have a look inside. The 2 megawatt generator on top has just started supplying electricity to the Swedish grid, providing power for about 400 homes.

By the end of 2026, as many as six million children could be out of school, following sharp reductions in education funding from major donor countries including the United States, Switzerland and the United Kingdom.
With such significant cuts looming, attention is turning to alternative sources of funding, such as philanthropic foundations. In 2020, global philanthropies contributed $9.6 billion to development aid. Switzerland alone is home to around 1,000 foundations active in this space. But can charitable organisations truly fill the gap? 👉 https://www.swissinfo.ch/eng/international-cooperation/charitable-giving-under-pressure-as-swiss-other-donors-cut-education-aid/90237710
