USA, California:

Huell Howser Goes to a Geothermal Plant


California's Green #135 - Geothermal from Huell Howser on Vimeo.

Huell Howser, host of public TV show "California's Gold," died on Sunday. In his own entertaining style, Huell traveled the state and commented on the landscape, both natural and man-made.

In this episode, Huell heads south to the small town of Heber to visit Ormat Technologies geothermal plant. From the earliest native peoples to the mud loving "spa' enthusiasts, this area has a rich history in harnessing the "heat" bubbling up from the ground. We'll get an education in how Ormat is harnessing this energy and using it to power our lives. (VIDEO. 26:42 Minutes)
