Should Geothermal be used More in Australia? - 0 views

  •  
    Rather than plunder resources, however, the Romans set about using them wisely. One such resource was the hot springs to feed public baths and underfloor heating.  Back then, the result was a beautiful form of bathing on a chilly winter's day. Nowadays, the result is tourist drawcard in the English county of Somerset known all over the world as a place called Bath. Sitting in a lovely warm bath on a cold winter's day back then, few Roman citizens would have contemplated the idea that the same concept used to heat their baths - a concept now called geothermal energy - would be widely used around the world and would be considered a serious part of a solution to stop the whole world from getting too hot. Today, however, such is the reality. In 2005, according to a GeoHeat Quarterly Bulletin published by Origin Institute of Technology, a total of 73 countries around the world produced a total of 273 petajoules (PJ) of energy using geothermal techniques. With the renewed push to achieve carbon emissions reduction in Australia, some engineers believe geothermal technology should be used more widely here.

    just this lines: power vehicles .. just when you need it ! ... it is a major idea for tomorrow: using the modules you need when you need: they can be done updated too ! ;))

    those lines: share and propose power engine vehicles ... hey , yep that's part of societal architecture, that's some trick form the modular architecture with high superstructure.. done , those on the need vehicles can be updated, as in architecture, that's one of its part.
