MAGMA THE NEW ELECTRICITY





 

A new source of power is emerging.  Whenever we hear of magma, we think of volcanoes exploding.  Except now we are putting that extremely hot melting mess into good use.  Scientists in Iceland are converting this heated mess into a geothermal energy.  It is said that we use the steam from the magma to generate electricity.

I’m really glad that scientists are making use of magma, because this energy is wasted and evaporated into the air unattended.  With this new invention, we will be using more of what Mother Nature gives to us.  This type of energy is natural, because we are just using the steam from a natural cause of earth.  

With the advancement of using magma, scientist might be able to harness new technology that will be able to withstand great heat.  When that happens, we might be able to explore further into the earth’s core, as well as, get closer to the sun’s surface.
