German Research Discredited by Populist Attacks

Germany plans to build its first underground geothermal laboratory, named Geolab, near Rimbach. The facility will be constructed up to 400 meters deep within a mountain ridge called Tromm. Researchers aim to study how to better utilize thermal energy for future applications. Research from Germany is facing accusations of populism and far-right attacks, particularly from the AfD party. Critics are attempting to discredit the entire investigation by focusing on individual word choices and formulations. The broader findings, however, are described as well-supported, especially for those who have read the book 'Geheimer Plan Deutschen'.
