Answer to Question 1

Twelve states in the central U.S. could potentially provide 90 of the electricity that is needed in the
U.S. It is probable that these states will collectively eclipse California in the future as the nation's
leading wind power source.



Answer to Question 2

fears among Americans about the safety of nuclear plants
