[FRIAM] Trees as wind farms.

[Nicholas Thompson]

Sitting here at the farm, watching the Normandy poplars bend in the Southeast wind, I am led to wonder why trees don’t make use of wind energy. There must be a tangible amount of heat generated by the bending of branches. Is there no way to use that heat for, for instance, convection of fluids within the tree? 

Or do they? And I am just too ill educated to know it.
