They just need to make sure they don't cause a massive earthquake in the process.

This team wants to capture unlimited energy from inside the earth

Striking Gold

A team of scientists has nearly dug deep enough inside Earth to tap into a reservoir of supercritical fluid, which could serve as a limitless power supply.

"It's just a much more benign system..."

Abandoned oil rigs pose a real threat to the environment and climate change. Can we find a way to eliminate the threat and also find a solution to the green energy crisis?

Earth & Energy

Abandoned oil wells pose a real threat to the environment and climate change. Can we find a way to eliminate the threat while powering our future?

This Solution to Aging Oil Wells Could Help Combat Climate Change

We could see an eruption of clean energy.

We could power the world with volcanoes

Harnessing the geothermal energy of volcanos could allow for reliable access to renewable energy in one of the least served nations in the world.

We Could Power the World With Volcanoes

The future of energy may be the heat that lives within our planet.

Even NASA admits their incredibly ambitious plan is risky.

NASA has shared a plan that would theoretically prevent the Yellowstone supervolcano from ever erupting while also generating electricity.

NASA Has a $3.46 Billion Plan to Ensure the Yellowstone Supervolcano Doesn’t Erupt

Bonus: It could provide energy for tens of thousands of years.

Iceland currently runs on 100% renewable energy, making them a global leader in the fight against climate change.

Don't want to use fossil fuels? No problem. Just use the center of the Earth.

Beneath the surface of our planet rests an amazing amount of heat and, thus, energy. The only problem is getting to it. However, scientists have a plan to use graphene in order to tap into this source.
