Does remind me of my ongoing question of why we aren't using volcanoes as generators for geothermal power.
Apparently it can be implemented in a way that deliberately draws heat away from the source that's being used for the power, so why not just stick cooling rods into volcanos and then get free electricity courtesy of the earth being a hot pocket?
In the volcano that's about to erupt, there is a geothermal power plant right next to it. Same for the similar eruption in Hawaii, it had a geothermal plant already.
