Geothermal Energy

[Gunny]

Been reading up on this a little. Of all the dumbass schemes the left has attempted to foist onto us, one has to wonder why geothermal energy isn't on their list. I suspect it has something to do with where the greenies have their money invested

This makes more sense to me than any greenie scheme I've heard. Some company is planning to drill the hole, based on science done at MIT. Hope that hole doesn't deflate the Earth like a balloon

One of its boasts is that every nation can be energy independent. I'm sure major oil producing nations aren't for it.

No to sit back and wait for @fj1200 to tell me what-all is wrong with the idea

There are only a few places on earth where it's commercially viable.

These people think they can make it happen. They plan to bore holes 12 miles deep to get around the selectivity of having to stick to places where the plates are thin.

Nothing I have seen addresses the affect, if any, all those holes would have on the planet.

I skimmed your link as commanded and IIRC you need to bring stuff up and pump it back down all while hoping Voldemort isn't released from Hades.

Voldemort?

I still say it gets no traction because it's not where the greenies have their money invested. That and there's no instant gratification. Long-term investment.

On the one hand liberals like to spend lots of other people's money with only the expectation of future results for present feelings of "doing something." It makes them part of the solution. But you're probably right, the smart money wants to actually earn a return.
