Geothermal Energy - Presidential Campaign

  Pros: 
Geothermal Energy is renewable.
Geothermal Energy can save a lot of money.
Geothermal Energy has unlimited potential. There is a huge amount of energy stored in the core of the Earth.


Cons:
Steep initial costs.
Danger of earthquakes if not careful
A large area is needed.




  As a result of my research, I found out that none of the Presidential candidates even attempted to touch on Geothermal energy. It is a subject that is considered irrelevant by many of the current presidential candidates, and I think that is a huge mistake. Although we do have large resources of oil and coal in our reserves, they are not renewable sources and will one day run out. However, people tend to center their focus on current issues and ignore the future prospects. If we do not focus not these subjects now, we might face a financial crises in the future. It is better to deal with the issue now rather than face horrible consequences in the future.
