Heat and Thermal Pollution

What is heat pollution, what causes it and what are the dangers?  How does Focus Fusion change the equation?

Fusion World

What does a world that runs on focus fusion look like?

Energy and Security

Energy and security intersect in many different ways.

Water

There are two major ways in which Focus Fusion can affect the planet’s looming water crisis. First, as a source of cheap, virtually unlimited energy it makes hydropower obsolete, liberating many water systems currently trapped behind dams.  Second, it will reduce the cost of desalinization dramatically, thus alleviating global water shortages.  Of course, switching to fusion and working on these issues will require a complex transition process.

The Environment

Energy consumption itself does not damage the environment.  The damage comes from extracting that energy from natural resources, processing it into something consumable, and burning it off/leaving waste behind.  Focus fusion would provide an energy supply without these negative environmental impacts - pure, clean energy.

Give a Man a Fish

There’s a pun in here about “poisson” and “fission”, except we’re not promoting fission.  We’re for focus fusion.  And so, apparently, is Jesus.

Poverty

In which we explore the relationship between energy and poverty.

What’s wrong with the energy picture today?

Today, the vast majority of energy is produced the same way it was at the end of the 19th century, by burning fossil fuels. We owe a great deal to these fossil fuels as they have have launched humanity into an unprecedented era of prosperity. However, this power source was not enough to propel everyone into prosperity. We’re literally “running out of gas” while billions of people still remain trapped in poverty.

Energy Crisis

The Energy Crisis*

*and the fusion footnote

According to many sources, the world today is caught in an escalating energy crisis. The crisis has profound economic, political and environmental impacts, which are steadily getting worse. But there is something missing from the old “Energy Crisis” equation, and that is Focus Fusion.
