gasses
Which type of energy can be harnessed in areas that experience volcanic activity?
geothermal
Why is geothermal energy not being used everywhere?
There's really only one reason why geothermal energy isn't used everywhere: not everywhere on the planet has some measure of geological activity, which is required for the potential of geothermal energy to exist. Underground reservoirs of water are heated by geological activity, such as earthquakes and volcanoes. This water turns to steam and expands. It is the force this steam can exert through its own natural convection that geothermal activity taps into to generate energy. Therefore, geothermal couldn't be done in areas that aren't geologically active, such as the Sahara Desert.
Is underground hot or cold?
It is generally rather cold unless there is geothermal activity in the area.
What are 2 types of geothermal activity?

Does ice land use geothermal energy?
yes. there are hot springs and tons of geothermal activity.
What causes a geothermal hot springs?
Volcanic activity.
What causes geothermal hot springs?
Volcanic activity.
Are hot springs and geysers examples of geothermal activity?
Yes, this is true. Geothermal power is the only form of renewable energy that does not originally come from the sun. Geothermal power uses the heat from deep inside the earth.
Reykjavik is heated by what?
Geothermal activity, such as volcanoes or underwater hot springs.
Which type of energy can be harnessed in areas that experience volcanic activity?
geothermal
What are 2 surfaces indications of the presence of geothermal activity?
Hot Springs and Geysers
What is the geysers built in 1960?
Geysers are not built. They develop as a matter of geothermal activity.
What is the advantage of volcanic activity?
Volcanic activity can be an excellent source of geothermal energy, it can act as a fertilizer for the soil too. hope this helps
