2f+Geothermal+--+Future+Use



=** Although geothermal energy is renewable, conservation is most desireable. **=
 * (Geothermal energy is renewable because it is replenished by rainfall which is a flow resource saying it will always be on Earth) **


 * 1. You can turn down the air conditioning by a few degrees in the summer. **
 * 2. You can turn down the heat by a few degrees in the winter. **
 * 3. You can wash clothing in colder water instead of warm. **
 * (You might not notice but you are saving heat from the earth) **
 * 4. You can return used geothermal water back into the earth. **

=** The Future of Geothermal energy is depending on new technology. **=


 * 1. Small scale pumps that can fit in backyards powering the house and saving around 1/5 of the money spent on energy. **
 * 2. Hot dry rock energy which takes the heat from rocks found all over the planet except on the crust, and turns it into energy. **
 * 3. Stronger drills that can dig deeper into the earth so that all geothermal reserviors on the earth are able to be extracted and turned into energy. **
 * Here is a diagram showing a house powering miniature pump. **
