It sits in the the south east above a geothermal active zone. As mentioned in our first post Iceland lays on two tectonic plates and the limit between them runs from south west to north east through the island.<\/span><\/em><br \/>\n<em> <span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">Along this line lava is very close to the earths surface and many volcanos sit here. Reykjavik sits on this line which allows to supply the whole city with hot water and &#8220;green&#8221; electricity through geothermal power stations.<\/span><\/em><br \/>\n<em> <span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">We find this really cool! (No CO2!) But it is still strange to imagine that only a few km below us the earth is liquid and volcanos can erupted almost any time !<\/span><\/em><br \/>\n<em> <span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">We are not quite sure why this electricity is not also used for all cars (some buses use H2) and don&#8217;t get a good explanation from locals. Norway is much more advanced here with its hydroelectricity and heavy subsidization of electrical cars. But maybe the recent huge economic crisis here has slowed down the progress in this matter.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">We spend two days walking through the pleasant and\u00a0relatively small city.
