Why yes of course! Those bubbling cauldrons and steam clouds rising all over Ohio! Why didn't I think of it before?? We can shut down all our power plants and covert completely over to geothermal here in Ohio... and sit in the dark... Try again.
Ugh... I did prove it in any number of the other stupid threads you had on your dumb alternative fuel theories.
Wind power can not be used as a baseline source of power. The reason is because when the wind stops, the entire city has a black out. You must have coal or nuclear, or gas power plants running to pick up the slack.
Geothermal is nice, and is fine in area where it is available. It can not, and will not, be sufficient to replace conventional energy sources.
Solar, thus far is a complete joke. The amount of electrical power used in creation of a solar panel, is more than the panel will ever produce in it's life time. Further, the cost of a solar panel is still far too expensive to be economically practical. If/when that changes we'll talk about it.
You just have bought in to so much garbage, that instead of looking at the fact, you have adopted a stupid illogical conspiracy theory to explain why alternative forms of energy can not replace conventional.
I know about inversion ponds. Israel has been using them, on a very limited basis because they are expensive, and require measures that can "disrupt the ecology of the pond". If they are expensive in Israel where the massive sun output is much higher than here, then likely they won't be very practical in the U.S.
Yeah I'm sure everyone is going to be clamoring for cow crap to run their home appliances. I'm sure interested...
Don't care at all. If you have an alternative form of energy you wish to use, feel free. At least the people in your neighborhood will know which house is saving of every by the smell.
But none of these alternative electricity sources replaces oil, so by all means. You won't be hurting my 401K. Maybe if I had stock in coal, but I don't. Do any of your posts every make sense?
