If God had wanted us to have nearly unlimited clean energy, He would have placed a fusion reactor into the sky.

Stay off trying to debate ev vs ice over this. When all the vehicles are ev, you're going to need a LOT more solar panels and batteries to keep up. A whole lot more.

As for the creation of nuclear waste from fusion; it doesn't make radioactive waste like fission, it makes less and what it makes has a much, much, shorter half life.

Plus, imagine re-blanketing the planet in all those solar panels in a 30 year loop as they age out. Solar is great for local stuff and your house. Fusion will be the ultimate energy source, so long as it can be perfected.
