Scientists successfully replicate historic nuclear fusion breakthrough three times

This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
Nuclear fusion isn't the solution to the climate crisis. It's decades away, if it ever happens; the climate crisis is something we're having to tackle now.
Researching this doesn't prevent renewables being researched or rolled out? I think the nuclear scientists developing this might be better researching this as opposed to researching fission reactors or researching renewables as this is likely their area of expertise.
Fusion is a long shot but if it was achieved it would be world changing (hopefully for the better)
I just bought a house 30 meters above see level. If I calculated this right I will get to retire in a beach front property. That's the best solution to climate change you can get today.
Solution:
No more Private Jets or Yachts.
Transportation Infrastructure Overhaul to transition away from cars and diversify to a set of electric or non-fuel forms of transportation (Lightrail, Train, Electric Busses, Bikes, Lamborfeeties.)
But to do the latter we'd have to go on a major guerilla marketing campaign to undo decades of car company propaganda.
And for the former we'd basically have to perform a miracle.
not gonna happen in a billionaire-captured world
Fusion could become perfect and effective tomorrow and it still wouldn't solve the climate crisis because of the power and influence of entrenched corporations
It will not be tomorrow even for the end of the week
Ok
