"renewable sources   ... geothermal."

The earth's subsurface is losing about 30 terawatts per day; energy that will never be restored.  Oil is being created continuously.  Yet, geothermal energy is called "renewable" and oil isn't.

OK, call me a nit-witted nit-picking geek, but IMO words should mean things and in this case the word renewable seems to have nothing to do with renewing anything.
