IMO this will turn out to be bullsnot. Fusion is the way top go if we can figure it out and wow do I hope they have.

That said, nothing wrong with using thorium reactors for now. If that LFTR in 5 minutes video isn't a bunch of bullshit (and since the chinese are building one now, it's probably not), it's the way to go to get us off of coal for the time being and would revitalize the mining industry when coal got hit. Uranim reactors are the dumbest way to go ever, unless you're looking to make a bomb. For the life of me I don't understand how a totally safe fission reactor like LFTR hasn
t gained more traction in the science mags, unless I've missed something huge.
