While the fusion idea is a nice dream, it’s already too late. We have renewable energy and storage options now, that can be installed now, that we need to do everything we can to accelerate now, as our best hope
Sure, fusion has a lot of potential but we can’t afford to wait another decade or two for even the best hope of controlling it, then figure out how to scale it to the world. Regardless of the merits and assuming all the best, it’s just too late. We need to fix global warming faster than that could possibly be developed and scaled out
of course we should be using all renewables now (as well as nuclear), but the world will only need more and more energy in the future. Sustainables are a bridge and a supplement, but for long term security, fusion is the answer. fusion empowers us to do whatever humanity is capable of.
