to bad none of this will ever happen. the oil companies wont let it happen because they will be out of business. Trust me give it five years and you wont even know what geothermal energy is the oil companies will patent the idea and not let anybody use it much like what they do they to electric car batters. Oil companies have batteries that can run a car so many miles but hey if they let that go they make no money. everything is about money and until that changes nothing in the world will.

The statement that this form of geothermal is "emission free" has me wondering about the validity of the claim.

lulz, i burn tires & used electronics to heat my suv! haha im gonna watch the world burn lolololololo

I can't believe I let a racist get me mad... Anyways, I always wondered why geothermal was so "limited". It's EGS that is UNlimited. Even better than the almost unlimited nature of concentrated solar power with molten salt heat storage. The only thing better about all them mirrors is that they can help reflect the sun to make up for all that heat brought up from below (even though less than CO2 entrappment). The heat from Earth is about a google times the heat we use... Right on Google!

What does that make of you? A worm!

IM doing a science project on Geo-Thermal and this gave me lots of information :) Unfortunatly its Not enough :{

I recently did a presentaion Geo-Thermal energy and I must say that it would be only a benifit to us

75% Koolaid drinkers on these comments. Anyone who thinks this might cool the earth's core is mindnumbingly uh,... IQ challenged. Try doing a little research before you made these kind of comments please. Geothermal will be the ultimate winner in the energy race within 200 years or so. The earth will cool when the sun starts cooling, not because we heat water in her crust and pipe it to the surface. Geez...

what seems like a good idea now might probably not be such a good idea if the whole world goes nuts with this. Energy is not free, the easiest to imagine consequence is having the core of the earth a few degrees cooler, what could be the effects on this on the planet? I'm all for it, but it should be regulated, we can't abuse the core's heat, it must be keeping us alive somehow.
