Geothermal

Geothermal comes from the Greek, geo meaning earth, and thermal meaning heat. So that pretty much explains that we can use steam and hot water to heat buildings, homes, etc. with heat that generates from inside the earth. Geothermal energy is renewable because it uses the earth to replenish with waterfalls, rain fall, and the heat inside the earth. The energy we get from inside the earth is 4,000 miles below the surface. The heat is produced by radioactive particles slowly decaying. The core has two layers, the solid iron core, and the mantle, which is 1,800 miles long. People all around the world use geothermal energy for their homes by digging a well and pumping the heat into their homes. Prince Piero Ginori Conti was the first to test a geothermal generator, which he did in California.Geothermal comes from the Greek, geo meaning earth, and thermal meaning heat.
