Ответ:
Option C, Geothermal energy can be harnessed without destroying large tracts of habitat, whereas solar farms require large amounts of space.
Explanation:
The amount of space required by a solar farm is 40 times larger than coal plant and 100 times larger than the gas plants.
With such higher space demand, solar energy becomes a costly affair. Along with being costly, it also makes the land non usable for any other purpose which would otherwise have been used for agriculture.
While in geothermal plants the space requirement is only for setting up the generator and production unit which is comparably very less to solar plant space requirement .
Hence, option C is correct
