In books for children of this age, alternative energy has often been treated as one topic, either in a single book or relegated to the last chapter in a volume on energy. After the oil crisis of the early 1970's the subject underwent considerable research, and alternative energy projects are now in operation around the world. As well as examining these economically viable schemes, the series discusses possibilities for the future. These are likely to be increasingly relevant as environmental concerns assume more importance. The book shows how geothermal energy is currently being used, and discusses its potential and the environmental implications. The author begins by establishing why the world needs to develop geothermal energy sources. He then examines different schemes around the world, at the same time acknowledging possible problems.
