摘要：
The Galapagos Islands, home of the unusual flora and fauna that inspired naturalist Charles Darwin's groundbreaking work on evolution, are striving to promote clean energy that protects the area's unique biodiversity. Part of that effort is the 2.4-MW San Cristobal Wind Project, which displaces diesel-powered electricity generation. This new energy source will cut greenhouse gas emissions and reduce the risk of devastating diesel-fuel tanker spills in a highly protected environment.
