Whoa, just because we can get from here to Mars in a jiffy, doesn't mean we can all start singing Kumbaya and buying each other Cokes. I know damn well if this technology were to become a reality, nation states would closely control it's use for their own benefit. Running down to Home Depot for a wormhole is not in the cards.

You're totally right. It can solve the energy crisis. Imagine anchoring one end of a wormhole in a deep point of the earth, so you can extract the internal heat of the earth and use it in a geothermal power plant. To make it more economical, you can avoid installing new complexes. Just take out the facilities of a fossil/nuclear plant from the building, then install the new facilities in the same building and start having green geothermal energy!
That sounds lovely, but just taking carbon out of the earth has caused a world of hurt, that wasn't predicted for a very long time. How do we know what the consequences of moving the heat from the earth's core to the atmosphere are going to be? Will it cause excess cooling of the core, and shrinkage causing massive earthquakes, tsunamis, super volcanoes and prairie dog suicides?
