Geothermal energy is essentially carbon-free, it is available at any time of day and in any weather, and it leaves a small footprint on the landscape. New approaches to harnessing it may have us on the cusp of an energy revolution. https://newyorkermag.visitlink.me/0-UeER
Why the Time Has Finally Come for Geothermal Energy
It used to be that drawing heat from deep in the Earth was practical only in geyser-filled places such as Iceland. But new approaches may have us on the cusp of an energy revolution.

Despite negative press reporting the energy transition is well underway. In the UK, we see strong demand for electric vehicles and solar panels. And the more people learn that these technologies can offer them tangible benefits the more others will adopt them too.
