Energy: what makes things happen, sentence 11

A wind turbine turns the energy of moving air into electricity; the wind itself is made by the Sun warming the air unevenly.

Who acts: wind turbine, energy, Sun · What happens: turn, move, make, warm · To what, where: energy, air, electricity, wind

This is a sentence of the lesson «Energy: what makes things happen» of the physics course of Mova's primary school. The page gives its syntax tree — a dependency tree in the style of Universal Dependencies — and its pragmatics clause by clause: who acts (wind turbine, energy, Sun), what happens, when and where, as Mova's frames read it from the tree.
