Without doubt the human race needs to find a method, or indeed many methods, of generating copious amounts of CO2 neutral electricity that is sustainable. I hate the idea that sustainable energy conversion is called renewable. Energy is not renewable, but everything, energy-wise, is towards entropy, but not in our lifetimes, or indeed the lifetime of our sun.
Fusion has always been [in my lifetime] twenty years in the future. It was twenty years in the future in the 1970s, and still is today!
It seems the whole premise may be misguided ...
I watch the estimable Sabine Hossenfelder, and her latest YouTube film makes some points that are not otherwise widely known.
Please do watch right through. The issues are all about not telling the whole truth about what is possible in terms of basic physics on Earth [rather than in the sun], and poses a remarkable question about the confusion on the topic.
Just tuppence' worth and very best wishes from George
