Fusion or not, only an abundance of incredibly cheap clean energy is going to turn back the tide on CO2 and other pollutants, and who knows what problems that may bring.

If agitation is actually the main mechanism for breaking off microfibers, with the greater volume of water in a delicate wash just helping to float them away, then could it be that a normal cycle does break off more microfibers after all,

I never came across Mondo 2000 but your comment puts me in mind of Omni magazine, which I have sketchy memories of pooring over in the library in the 90s.
