I was talking to my dad a while back about renewable energy and a new digging technology that could make establishing geothermal power easier and faster. He told me “I don’t like geothermal power. We shouldn’t be digging into the earth like that.” I was so flabbergasted all I could say was “What?”, shake my head, and walk away abandoning the conversation. And I am still trying to mentally recover from that conversation.

He also doesn’t like solar or wind because they are “to unreliable”. So I really should have seen something like that coming.
