Like da ability to stop hurricanes, tornados, tsunamis, volcano eruptions, earthquakes, etc? https://arstechnica.com/science/2014/02/massive-offshore-wind-farms-unexpected-benefit-hurricane-protection/ According to Standford Universities simulations, lining the US Coast with a MASSIVE AMOUNT of Off-Shore Wind Turbines would dramatically lower the intensity of Hurricanes. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M7uRtxl8j2U Making LOTS of Wind Farms form a wall around the US along the coast line can theoretically absorb ALOT of the energy from a Hurricane/Typhoon/Tornado can "LOWER" the intensity. It WON'T stop the Hurricane/Typhoon/Tornado sadly. But it's a start. Volcano & Earthquakes, we can probably predict when those will happen and evacuate, but we can't stop it. Tsunami's could be withstood if you made your home out of Concrete / Steel instead of Wood. http://courses.washington.edu/larescue/precedents/prevention.htm Alot of Tsunami mitigation comes from good local planning & Quality manufacturing of Buildings / Facilities. --- Are you a MexiCAN or a MexiCAN'T - Johnny Depp 'Once Upon A Time in Mexico' ...
