surely, solar power is more reliable for hot countries like australia? why not stretch the recently very cheap (i'm told) solar material like a tent top to harvest energy and cool the desert underneath and make it habitable/irrigable with all that electrickery originating from the sun?

Why not use a cooling tower?

I am currently studying Geology and Geophysics and was a bit annoyed about having to work for a petroleum company if I wanted to help solve the world's energy crisis. I am so happy to see that Google is investing in Geothermal!! I want to work on this sooo badly!!! :D

ya, very human-like, I guess. Let's suck the energy out of everything to make money.. Humans have to spread all over, I know. Ya we have also the right to do so, god is supposed to say.

Why do my sketchups never look like this?

Minor hydrogen sulfide emissions, tiny risk of earth quakes.
The risks of not having enough reliable electricity include death from exposure to the elements, damage to electrical devices, spoilage of frozen or chilled food, loss of productivity and income, loss of heavy industry(ask California), inabillity to guarantee timely health care and lack of alternatives to avoid liquifying coal as a transportation fuel and avoid the high death toll that results from coal particulate emissions.

I'm no fan about getting energy from earth'S magma. I first want to know what it's risks are - there have to be some! |
