For the second time, scientists have taken one significant step forward toward a future that runs on clean, sustainable nuclear fusion-powered energy.

By Kurt Cobb - Jun 20, 2023, Oil Price Fusion reactors, while producing energy, also produce neutron streams that can cause radiation damage, produce radioactive waste, necessitate biological shielding, and even create the potential for weapons-grade plutonium production. Apart from the aforementioned problems, fusion reactors face issues such as tritium release, intensive coolant demands, and high operating…

Fusion reactors, in their feasible designs, could generate significant radioactivity and radioactive waste, coupled with high operational costs, technical challenges, and potential for weapons-grade plutonium production.

Of course if anyone manages to create “Biosphere Three” a closed loop system running off a fusion power plant supporting plants, animals and humans for even one year, without any solar or other energy input, AND pay for all the embodied energy (measured by eMergy accounting) in the whole setup, do wake me from my dreams of a prosperous way down through energy descent futures, to let me know the news.
