       Humans can be fallible, violence prone, dangerous to themselves, other species and the world, true.But humans can also cooperate, achieve amazing feats, and even save the planet from devastation.I considered this when I heard that 70 years after the first use of atomic fusion, humans have achieved *ignition* at the Lawrence Livermore Lab. That means more energy was produced from a fusion reaction than was used to power it. We have a long way to go, but this is a huge milestone! #Hope #Fusion

       @georgetakei We can and should celebrate the advance of science. There simply won't be enough tritium in nature to make a difference. In THEORY. a fusion process can "breed" new tritium by injecting lithium into the process. I don't think this has never been done for real. Meanwhile we already have fusion power with solar, wind & hydro. Let's make sure the fusion boosters aren't actually working on behalf of the fossil fuel people to derail efforts to deploy wind and solar aggressively now.

       @DoubleFelix @georgetakei dbz was the peak of fusion technology and we all want to pretend it isnt.
