Geothermal Quotes

• Ya sea el desarrollo de sistemas de pilas de combustible en el centro de Oregón, la generación de energía eólica a lo largo del Columbia Gorge o la energía geotérmica en el sur de Oregón, la inversión en nuevas fuentes de energía hace que Estados Unidos sea más independiente energéticamente, al tiempo que crea puestos de trabajo bien remunerados y respetuosos con el medio ambiente.

• The fact that this chain of life existed [at volcanic vents on the seafloor] in the black cold of the deep sea and was utterly independent of sunlight - previously thought to be the font of all Earth's life - has startling ramifications. If life could flourish there, nurtured by a complex chemical process based on geothermal heat, then life could exist under similar conditions on planets far removed from the nurturing light of our parent star, the Sun.

• Creo que una norma de cartera debería ir más allá de la energía eólica, solar y geotérmica e incluir energías renovables como la hidroeléctrica y alternativas limpias como la gasificación del carbón, el carbón limpio, la energía nuclear y, por último, créditos por alcanzar nuevos niveles de eficiencia y conservación.

• At a time when our planet is warming due to climate change, the last thing our environment needs is more drilling. What we need is for Congress and the White House to move toward clean energy such as solar, wind and geothermal.

• The transition from coal, oil, and gas to wind, solar, and geothermal energy is well under way. In the old economy, energy was produced by burning something - oil, coal, or natural gas - leading to the carbon emissions that have come to define our economy. The new energy economy harnesses the energy in wind, the energy coming from the sun, and heat from within the earth itself.

• En cuanto a la generación de electricidad, somos muy optimistas respecto a la tecnología termosolar y nos intriga el potencial de la energía geotérmica mejorada para sustituir a la generación de electricidad a partir del carbón. Es poco probable que la generación eléctrica tradicional de carbón basada en la captura y secuestro de carbono sea competitiva.

• We must proceed with our own energy development. Exploitation of domestic petroleum and natural gas potentialities, along with nuclear, solar, geothermal, and non-fossil fuels is vital. We will never again permit any foreign nation to have Uncle Sam over a barrel of oil.

• Connection between life and radioactive nuclei is straightforward. No life without tectonic activity, without volcanic activity. And we know very well that geothermal energy is mostly produced by decay of uranium, thorium, and potassium.

• Even though it's important for all of us to change our light bulbs and the vehicles we drive, it's much more important to change our laws and policies. I drive a hybrid and we've changed our light bulbs and windows and installed solar panels and geothermal ground source heat pumps and most everything else. But putting the burden on individuals to solve this global crisis is ultimately not going to be the most effective way to solve it.

• Nuestro país ha padecido una política energética intermitente que no ha conseguido que alcancemos la independencia energética. Como ha dicho el Presidente Obama, necesitamos un plan energético integral para el país que incluya recursos convencionales como el petróleo y el gas, pero que también aproveche la energía eólica, solar, biomasa, geotérmica y otros recursos renovables.
