Nuclear Fission and Fusion Reactors


Nuclear Fission reactors are dangerous, they have radiation, and it can cause cancer- death. After the 3 mile island accident, USA stopped created new fusion reactors. Presently, nuclear energy provides for approximately 16% of the world's electricity. That's a lot. A fusion reactor, on the other hand, is safe, no radioactivity, pollution or waste. Presently, the process requires more energy input that it produces. That is not good. To make it simple, imagine this; there is a machine that turns paper into money. But the problem is, it needs ten pieces of paper to make a single dollar. What we need, is the machine to make ten dollars with a single piece of paper! Bam! Do you understand now? Well I guess you do. I am working on how we can get a different source of energy. GENIUS IDEA! Tell you guys later.
