Project to pour water into volcano to make power

Fuel Fix 

Geothermal energy developers plan to pump 24 million gallons of water into the side of a dormant volcano in Central Oregon this summer to demonstrate new technology they hope will give a boost to a green energy sector that has yet to live up to its promise.

All of this in order to avoid putting carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.  That is what I mean when I say that it is a religious belief or church.  Even if the world is getting hotter because of carbon dioxide, so what?  The Earth's climate has changed throughout geologic time.  It will change again regardless of what we do or don't do.  If the climate got hotter, people would have to adjust.  If a new ice age occurred, people would have to adjust.  The presumption is that if we behave a certain way, nothing will change.  This defies evidence.  Things will change one way or the other.
