A clean and sustainable source of energy exists in a form of controlled nuclear _fusion_. Unlike Nuclear _fission_ (current nuclear technology) fusion works with hydrogen (deuterium and tritium isotopes) and produces no lasting radioactivity or dangerous materials. The source material is just water. Commercial use is still a decade away [1]
