It's still 20+ years away from commercial use, but could be a real game changer. Of course, we'll still need oil and petrochemicals, as well as other sources. The energy future is complex, but far from hopeless.

Thanks.
Appreciate the link. Have read some info on it before. Still think LFTR is a far less complicated approach, with far more benefits. We probably will be buying LFTRs from the Chinese by the end of this decade if we don't do it ourselves....
