Kenneth Barrick at University of Alaska - Fairbanks, is particularly interested in this subject, and would be a suitable candidate to draft something about geothermal development and geyser protection. Somewhat related, I would like to report that the "No a la geotérmica en los Géysers del Tatio" (Save El Tatio) group on Facebook now has 3618 members. It's worth a look. Their photo section contains images of protests at the geysers and San Pedro de Atacama that have been staged against electrical development at El Tatio.
