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 unfortunately you've been "greenwashed" here... they did NOT get more energy out than they put in. They produced, with zero feasible way to collect or use any of it, more energy than they pumped down the laser beams. Big difference.

@Willeaston @georgetakei

Will, do you have an academic source for those statements? I would like to check it out.
