How are you?
I am a health advisor with the world's largest Health and Wellness Company. I'm looking to share some valuable health and wellness ideas and thoughts with you. If you have any ways to live a healthier life I would love to hear them.
I come across this the other day and feel we should not pay monies to companies who are selling toxins to us consumers.
So this is a great video on toxins and the companies who try to sell them to us, you may find it very useful. Check it out at

Answer: 0.00 dollars.

Based on the facts outlined by the federal government's Energy Information Administration, Minnesota spends about 1/2 billion dollars annually on coal to pay for electrical generation. Back of the napkin calculations show that generating electricity by wind instead of coal would cost 10 billion dollars. (This is the amount needed to build roughly 7,000 turbines.) This is similar to the price of a huge mountain of coal-- a mountain that Minnesota would consume in 20 years, which is the lifespan of a wind generator. Because turbines could be located closer to sources of consumption, it's likely that less power would be lost due to resistance. Currently about half of the power generated by coal is lost to resistance. About 12 plants service the entire state. My calculations do not take into account this aspect of wind generation, but it could provide an additional boon.
