With the cost declines of solar and wind, climate activists hope renewables can upend the oil and gas industry, powering the world without contributing to climate change. But geothermal advocates say we can use the drilling practices of today’s energy giants to access the immense heat beneath the Earth’s crust.

Jamie is the founder and executive director of the Geothermal Entrepreneurship Organization at the University of Texas at Austin.
