Reply to comment by Robo-Connery in National Ignition Facility (NIF) announces net positive energy fusion experiment by Robo-Connery

We're making progress, but fusion energy's still nowhere near ready to be used yet. Exactly when it'll be ready, no one knows yet, but one hurdle has been overcome, which is good. Now the other hurdles have to be overcome such as energy storage, cost, efficiency, and the amount of times it can used in one day.

Better and more effective to focus on commercial transport, manufacturing processes and other various industrial waste and pollution. A carbon tax would do considerably more good for the environment than switching everyone to electric cars tomorrow.
