This isn't renewable energy, the heat contained in the Earth's core will not last forever. This heat also causes the liquid metals contained within it to generate our magnetic field. This protects the Earth's atmosphere from being stripped by the sun.
I would be interested to know what the consequences would be if the whole world used Geothermal Energy? Or would this use be negligible? If we lost our magnetic field the consequences would be far worse than that of co2 emissions
Well... same can be said about solar - sun will one day either explode оr extinguish ... therefore solar energy is not renewable.
No one is going to start mass geothermal power plants all of a sudden, because the oil / gas / coal lobby is too damn strong. Besides, we can't such out enough heat from the earth's core - that's just impossible even if ALL electric power was produced from plan't like this one, which will never happen.

And how do you plan to "demagnetize" earth??? :)

is that comment addressed at oil or geothermal energy ... maybe coal?

When a nose bleeds, what happens? Blood tries to cover itself up. So why are we drilling underneath Earth, something it doesn't want.
