Fusion is the big hope. in 1% of the world's deuterium lies 500,000 times
more energy than will be burned by all fossil fuels combined. We have to
solve the helium problem. The problem is, it doesn't work, we aren't doing
enough research into it and thus I have no numbers for how much such a plant
costs or how much energy it will produce to do an economic study.
