will/can increase the availability of energy by alot. The reactants required for fusion power are also easily accessible. Deuterium (form of hydrogen) is found in sea water and Tritium (another form of hydrogen) can be taken out from lithium. Fusion also produces way less radioactive byproducts, and doesn't contribute to water or air pollution. There are no dangers of a meltdown and no catastrophic events can occur from fusion reactors. Once scientists and engineers figure out how to control fusion better, it will be able to take over fission for most of the reasons described above.

Advantages of Fusion
There are many advantages that come from nuclear fusion. If fusion is controlled the power coming from this reaction will/can increase the availability of energy by alot. The reactants required for fusion power are also easily accessible. Deuterium (form of hydrogen) is found in sea water and Tritium (another form of hydrogen) can be taken out from lithium. Fusion also produces way less radioactive byproducts, and doesn't contribute to water or air pollution. There are no dangers of a meltdown and no catastrophic events can occur from fusion reactors. Once scientists and engineers figure out how to control fusion better, it will be able to take over fission for most of the reasons described above.
