Wind Energy â Another Gift from the Sun? Wind energy comes from the sun. It is true â wind energy is simply a converted form of solar energy! The sunâs radiation warms different parts of the earth, oceans, and other bodies of water, at different rates. The night and day cycles make an obvious difference, but also, water and land absorb or reflect sunlight differently.
Ironstone china, ironstone ware or most commonly just ironstone, is a type of vitreous pottery first made in the United Kingdom in the early 19th century.
During the 19th Century Cleveland was a major ironstone mining area. At its peak the industry supported some 80 mines with an annual production of almost 7 million tons. The museum is situated on the site of Cleveland's first ironstone mine.
