Yes. But he'll be looking for a new tactic.
He hates being predictable. Scurries around something terrible to try to not be.
Panic of insecurity plus that Noob guy put hm in a fit.
His partner doesn't like being predictable either. But covers it up a little better.
95% that partner will identify himself though by trying to 'snark' this post.
He never seems to catch on to that.
happy

They say it's going to make a few million for the public purse, which is handy. Doesn't sound a huge amount though - it's about $110 per acre. 400MW of electricity is worth hundreds of millions per year. Of course only a fraction of that is profit.

They used to say geothermal was a small resource because the economics only stacked up in rare places (like on the side of a volcano). But modern technology seems to have radically changed that. It's not just solar and wind that have got a lot cheaper.

Perhaps lots of discussion to be had about geothermal.

I thought that Noob guy had gone away when I joked about blocking him because he had revealed he was Kim Jong-Un's son, but he seems to have vanished entirely. SIte mute or banning, I suppose.

bro ,you are talking about who?

Bravo ! A shocking mind-stretching experience 😐

A shocking, mind-stretching experience refers to a situation that is both unexpected and causes you to question your existing beliefs or perspectives. It can be a powerful experience that leads to personal growth or a new understanding of the world.

Hopefully everyone gets to experience that. In a good way.

Another way to say that:
Things aren't always what they seem to be.
Whether good or bad things.

The only reason I'm responding to this comment is because someone downvoted it. I have no idea why.

I know we disagree about climate change, but downvoting a comment about discussing geothermal? I don't understand that. I have no problem saying why I upvote or downvote something. Anyone care to fess up to why they downvoted this?

If its fester with his latest account he might not 'fess' right away.
And - mentioning that people without accounts can see these public forums from google.
So can people with accounts who haven't logged in.

The anonymous downvote feature is best ignored. If someone wants to express their view about a post in that way, the newer emoticon feature is better (and not anonymous).

None of those defending nonsense being done in the name of fighting climate change answer. What's the use of chemtrails? Why is it being forced upon everyone? Answer it then I have n number of other questions. If you can't then know who is keeping this information from everyone.

What is the use of the conspiracy theory that the vapour trails (comprised almost entirely of water) created mainly by the commercial jets that carry nearly 6 billion passengers per year, are really some sort of nefarious chemicals being spectacularly inefficiently delivered (diluted by 5 quadrillion tonnes of atmosphere)?
To be excessively polite, you could consider it a sort of entertainment for those who subscribe. But it is more accurately viewed as a pathology, a delusion that could cause harm.

Why is it being forced upon everyone?

I really don't know why you are forcing this drivel on everyone. Solution: stop.

Answer it then I have n number of other questions. If you can't then know who is keeping this information from everyone.

Answered. And not interested in more nonsense.

Basic physics of moisture and temperature.

Chemtrails??
That sounds a bit like 'moon landings didn't happen you know'.
Cigarettes and alcohol and cocaine and car exhaust and other things are poisoning and killing lots of people over time.
Chemtrails? Farm insecticides are probably causing more deaths than jet trails.
Chemtrails? 
Some flat-earthers think that pilots flying to Antarctica are in a conspiracy to keep silent about 'what's beyond the ice cliffs'.
And some flatties don't think Australia exists.

I decided to help you research this as you seem to be getting all the wrong information from somewhere.

Here's an article that explains condensation and a pertinent quote from it. Note that condensation forms when water vapor cools.
"In the atmosphere the relative humidity of the air is increased, and condensation results when air temperature is reduced to the dew point or when sufficient water vapour is added to saturate the air. Condensation accounts for the formation of dew, fog, and clouds. "
https://www.britannica.com/science/condensation-phase-change

Here's an article that explains combustion.
https://www.britannica.com/science/combustion

Here's an article that goes into more details about combustion. Notice that Carbon Dioxide and Water are two primary results of combustion.
https://www.chemistrylearner.com/chemical-reactions/combustion-reaction

Here's an article that explains what is released by burning jet fuel and some health implications. Notice that Carbon Dioxide and Water are still two of the primary results of burning jet fuel.
https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/15093276/

Jets release large amounts of water vapor as a result of burning fuel. This water vapor is released at high, cold altitudes causing it to condense into clouds. Sometimes winds disperse the clouds quickly, sometimes there are few winds to do the dispersing.

So here is all the explanation you need to understand that "chemtrails" are mostly water, the same as normal clouds. There is no "use" for them. They're just a product of combustion and condensation.

Too bad they can't burn just plain old hydrogen. For aircraft and other things.
Then there's no CO2.
Apparently its not practical. And too dangerous too.

Yeah. Good example !

Seems to be burning fine?
