"Geothermal development poses a potential health threat due to the hydrogen sulfide (H2S, a poisonous gas) that may be released in geothermal steam. At levels as low as 10 parts per billion (ppb) the gas can be detected as the smell of rotting eggs; at 50-100 parts per million (ppm) it can cause dizziness, coughing,headaches, and eye irritation; and at very high levels, which do not occur from
geothermal facilities, concentrations that exceed 600 ppm, the gas can be fatal"
Since geothermal can't release H2S in high enough levels to cause unconsciousness and death the anti people should quit referring to the effects of high concentrations.
