Management of a Gift: Hellisheiði geothermal power plant and CO2 storage, Iceland
<p>The eighth largest geothermal power plant in the world, set in a volcanic landscape covered with green moss, visually creates the impression of a harmonious place. The geological bedrock here is not only used to extract heat. It also serves as an underground storage of CO2, which gradually turns into stone. What does the sound say about the nature of drilling into the geological bedrock? Does it hint at the promise of a future in which humans have control over the environment?</p>
