Question

Two new wind turbines have recently been built

within the Eiffel Tower in Paris. The power that
these turbines generate will be enough to power
the entire first floor of the tower, including the
restaurants, shops, and exhibits. A benefit of using
wind power as an alternative source of energy is
that it
(1) is nonrenewable, so additional resources will
be depleted by tower businesses
(2) is renewable, so it will decrease the
environmental impact of the tower
businesses
(3) increases the use of resources that cannot be
renewed in the future
(4) decreases the amount of fossil fuels available
for future generations

Answer 1

(2) is renewable, so it will decrease the environmental impact of the tower

businesses

Step-by-step explanation:

Wind power is a renewable energy that cannot be depleted and as such is sustainable. Additionally, replacing renewable energy such as gas power by renewable energy such as wind, solar or hydopower will reduce the use of fossil fuels and hence reduce environmental impact of the tower businesses.
