Energy use.

People don't like the cost of using more energy. Obvious solution is clean, renewable energy to produce 100x more, or about the equivalent of $5M personal value creation per every person on earth (100x the Affluence with 100x Less Environmental Impact)

Bullshit Alert

The article above completely ignores the mental model of Kardashev Scale. Civilizationcurrently uses 1/10000 of the available solar power. From first principles, and from simplicity perspective - the preferred solution should therefore be solar, not nuclear. This is basics of numeracy. Unless we think that 100x (conservative limit based on 1% of available solar energy) higher energy use per capita is insufficient. Am I wrong?

the solution is solar. Fusion should remain 93M miles away.
