Living things need air to breathe
Moving air is called Wind
A gentle wind is called Breeze

Uses of moving air
A weather cock or wind vane is used to know the direction of the wind. At airports we use wind sock to know the direction of the wind. When aeroplanes fly in the direction of the wind , it saves fuel.
