What are the negative effects of geothermal energy on the environment?
It is not the energy that will be dissipated out into the environment is doing the worst damage, it is taking out of the geothermal energy from the Earth that do. Geothermal energy keeps the Earth alive.
Is geothermal from the sun?
Geothermal energy is NOT from the sun. Geothermal energy is from heat inside the earth!
Disadvantages of geothermal power plant?
A geothermal power plant has a very low carbon footprint. However these types of plants are not efficient at producing energy.
Is geothermal energy good for the environment?
Yes, it produces clean green electricity with no emissions. Using geothermal energy means we use less fossil fuelled energy which releases carbon dioxide into the greenhouse gases of the atmosphere.
What is the relationship between geothermal power and geothermal energy?
geothermal energy is geothermal power harnessed from the Earth itself
Does geothermal power leave a carbo footprint?
A small one yes. To harvest the geothermal energy you need to drill, build plant and infrastructure. This drilling, and construction has a carbon footprint (it needs energy to do). However the geothermal energy harvested has no carbon footprint.

Is geothermal energy and green energy the same?
Geothermal energy is only one of many forms of green energy. Green energy is so-called because it has no polluting emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2).
Does Ireland use geothermal energy?

Does the use of geothermal energy reduce global warming?
Yes, it can. Geothermal Energy will reduce man's dependence on Fossil Fuels, which create carbon dioxide, indirectly reducing global warming.

Heat energy generated within the earth is called what?
my answer is the heat energy is magmaThe heat energy in earths crust is geothermal energy
Is there anything that uses geothermal energy to produce geothermal energy?
No. Geothermal energy comes from the earth's core!
What is the relationship between geothermal power and geothermal energy?
geothermal energy is geothermal power harnessed from the Earth itself
What are 3 ways that geothermal energy benefits us?
Once geothermal plants have been set up the energy will:heat houses in the wintercool houses in the summergenerate electricityall without any harmful carbon emissions.
