...is a very cool story about geothermal energy production in the Philippines - and the fact that the Bush Admin gutted USG-sponsored geothermal research in 2006.

Meanwhile, a US Geological Survey report released this week says that geothermal plants on accessible public and private land in 13 Western states could "supply about half the electricity now generated in the United States."

Read that again: Half of the US electricity supply. Let's hope that Obama's energy advisers are clipping stories like this.
