fusion 100% is the future whenever it's figured out.

But I'm not as scared as mining, my country has a lot of mining operations, mostly copper, but the modern tech they have is quite incredible, they use robots to mine, wich are safely controlled in an office building in the city.

Oh! That's nice to know about mining, making it safer for workers! But there's still the environmental impact... A few years ago, I was talking with a mine engineer who seemed proud to say that they had to move a lake to mine. He claimed that simply shop-vaccuming fishes from one place to the other was good enough....
