Geothermal Resources Council

Okay kiddo, so you know how sometimes we get really hot or cold and we use things like the air conditioner or heater to make us feel better? Well, some places on Earth have really hot rocks underneath them that we can use to make electricity to power homes and buildings instead of using things that pollute the air.

The Geothermal Resources Council (GRC) is a group of people who are really interested in learning more about geothermal energy – which is the fancy way of saying energy from hot rocks. They want to find ways to use this kind of energy to help people all over the world have electricity without having to rely on things that can harm the environment.

The people in the GRC help each other by sharing information and talking about new ways to use geothermal energy. They’re kind of like a big team of people who want to make the world a better place by using energy that doesn’t hurt the planet.
