Think of geothermal as 'earth-heated.' It describes heat from within the Earth. ♨️ This heat can be used for energy. Geothermal energy comes from the Earth's core, radioactive decay, and residual heat from the planet's formation. Geothermal power plants tap into this heat to generate electricity. Geothermal energy is a renewable resource because the Earth continuously produces heat. It's like having a giant, natural furnace under our feet. This type of energy can be a sustainable solution to help us reduce our reliance on fossil fuels.
