OK I’ll bite. How “massive” an amount of energy are you hypothesizing?

If it’s so massive why aren’t we harvesting it?

Has this theory been published anywhere?

All the references I can find show earth’s core is heated by latent heat of planetary formation, friction from convection currents in the mantle, heat from phase change as the solid core expands, and the big one -radioactive decay of isotopes in the earth’s interior.

Enough to heat the core, create a magnetic field, and possibly make the planet rotate. A miniscule amount compared to what is available.

Because most of our energy 'capture' is based on an itsy-bitsy teeny-weeny part of the Electro-Magnetic Spectrum, and even that we are inefficient at converting.

Probably. It seems obvious.

What do you think generates the ozone, and what creates the 'hole' in it ?
