Some countries have already started using this type of energy including the Phillipines‚ Coasta Rica‚ and Salvador. Even “Iceland is using it’s geothermal energy source to meet all of it’s energy needs” (Morgan 54). This energy source is much more efficient than using fossil fuels. Fossil fuels are nonrenewable and contributes to climate change. When they burn‚ they relase carbon
