Oklahoma Wind Capacity to Rise Above 30 Percent of Electrical Generation
Over the past week, serious advances continue to be made on these fronts. In the Oklahoma panhandle, Invenergy has partnered with GE Renewable Energy to build a 2 GW onshore wind farm. Once finished, the farm (named Wind Catcher) will be the largest U.S. wind farm and the second largest such farm in the world.

Given the inertia of our present path to destruction of our life support systems, it may already be too late!
