A Village Wired to a Volcano

Later, Polly walked through the village. Steam came from cracks in the road. A big pool glowed orange nearby. This is the same heat that cooked lunch.

The hot water fills a big public pool. It stays warm all year with no machine. Iron in the water makes it orange.

Some homes use this heat for hot water too. No fire is needed. The whole village runs on the volcano below it.

Polly sat by the warm pool. She felt the heat. This village found a smart way to use its volcano.
