Unlimited Green Energy Supply From Google!

"New research from SMU’s Geothermal Laboratory, funded by a grant from Google.org, documents significant geothermal resources across the United States capable of producing more than three million megawatts of green power – 10 times the installed capacity of coal power plants today."

That quote, from a public relations release from Southern Methodist University in Dallas, Texas, points us to a clear and clean future for energy production and consumption. We make the vast amount of our energy through burning things, things that add heat to our world, not to mention fouling our air.

If heat is the answer to our problems, then we have plenty to go around, according to the study. If we tapped those sources we could power the entire country without adding one plant or nuclear power plant. Look at the map below to see how hot your area is.
