I guess it’s not technically renewable but the reservoir of geothermal energy is so vast it’s hard to see how it could be used up and it has minimal environmental impacts.
It is possible depending on the technology used. I personally don’t think the earthquake issue is as big of a deal as people think it is. We’re talking quakes so small you don’t even feel them.
I don’t know if this would compound and lead to larger ones if there were more facilities. If so it could be a bigger concern.
To be fair, I don’t even consider solar and wind power to be renewable. But then again I’m the sort of weirdo that considers things on astronomical timescales.
“Renewable” is just a word they came up with to keep us from doing something about the fact that the sun will grow into a red giant with a diameter larger than Earth’s orbit.
WTF are they smoking?

Don’t current geothermal techniques trigger small earthquakes in the midwest and Ohio Valley?

Renewable doesn’t exist on astronomical time scales, so you’re just being an ass.

So an Astronomical Ass then, noted.
