5. Solution Home One possible solution is to generate electricity from the Gulf Stream flow, particularly in the vicinity of Florida, where the Florida Current exiting the Florida Straits is well defined and close to shore. The reaction forces of the turbines, as well as the drag of the turbine blades, housings, moorings, and power cables will reduce the velocity of the stream. This will reduce the amount of warm water brought up the coast to feed into the current that crosses the Atlantic Ocean.
