questions

Okay, so, do the winds increase as the temperature does?
If so, does something like a wind turbine, which absorbs the energy of the wind, also reduce temperature by absorbing energy?
If so, can we lower the planets temperature by building enough windmills?

This is probably all wrong, but I thought I'd ask anyway.

the key word there is "turbine", Bro. Everything that produces energy, be it Dams, Nuc plants, coal plants, what have you, produce the energy by turning turbines. So no, the answer to your question, is, unfortunately not.

Yeah, but they do so by absorbing energy from whatever medium is passing through them. Question is, does that absorption cause cooling, or is it offset by the friction, or is it a totally different dynamic and I have no idea what I'm talking about?
