Fully agree.
But the meme of nuclear fusion has been around for nearly 50 years, yet nowhere close for practical utilization due to a lot of unseen technical problems.
I can only hope that we'll be a bit more lucky this time. And that the projects won't be ruined due to political struggles.
- marsokod 7y agoWhile I would totally love to see nuclear fusion be an option, I am afraid the timeline simply does not fit the challenge. Realistically, we won't be able to have nuclear fusion production-ready under less than 20 years, and most probably ~40 years. If we do nothing in the next 20 years, it's not 2 degrees we are looking at, but 4+ degrees. The difference will be millions vs billions of deaths.
