If we are f@@ked, it’s because we chose to be so. The Liquid Fluoride Thorium Reactor (LFTR) is being ignored because of the alternative energy green and oil mafias are winning. Meanwhile China and India are working on it. I could write much about it, but look for videos on YouTube. Advantages:
1. There is practically an inexhaustible supply of Thorium
2. Not a proliferation threat
3. Waste has half life of 50 years
4. Designs are very efficient, not requiring rivers and oceans for cooling
5. Incredibly small footprint on the earth compared to wind and solar, if entire energy use was supplied.
6. Can be used to convert CO2 in air to diesel which can be used until infrastructure is transformed. The net carbon in this case is zero.
7. Can be used to produce hydrogen, the ultimate fuel to power the new motion architecture.
8. Enables solutions which permit much more energy without impact to biosphere.
