I would rather it was fusion.

it looks like we can get by at the current level with renewables. One
day a couple of years ago the UK was > 50% renewable. (low load sunny
and windy day) We have some failry big offshore wind farms:

But "current level" won't solve anything. With 10x the current output
we could solve problems. With 100x we could stop mining and reprocess
our land-fill sites into raw elements for re-use.

I don't know why nobody is pushing for war-level funding for Fusion.
It can work, the sun proves that.
