The waster products from Geothermal are limited to the waste produced by the initial production of the systems (heats pumps, piping, fuel in drilling) but mainly in the electric energy required to run the pumps as they function. The information I found indicates that it takes about 1KW of electricity to produce 4 to 5 KW of heat energy. (about 13,000 BTU). so calculating what the waste of pollution is requires knowing what source produces your electricity. There should be no other waste from a properly functioning system. Leaking glycol is the other thing I could think of but propylene glycol is used in food production and is quite benign.
