Not mentioned? Nuclear fusion is hugely expensive, and this quest has produced much toxic waste

Radiation Free Lakeland 11th Feb 2021, The local News and Star and other press have reported uncritically that ….“The Moorside Clean Energy Hub came out on top in the mini
competition. Cumbria LEP will now work with Copeland Borough Council in a
bid to bring the cutting edge technology to Copeland. If successful, a
prototype of the fusion reactor, which Professor Stephen Hawking has called
“the key to the future” could be housed at Moorside; along with the
Small Modular Reactors that are already in the works. This is right at the
cutting edge of green energy” said deputy chairman of Copeland Borough
Council David Moore.”

What NuSpeak is this! Nuclear is not clean and
Fusion is Expensive as in off the richter scale ..it uses huge energy,
needs tritium etc ..doesnt work (as in produce net energy) despite decades
of funding and produces waste even tho they claim it doesnt. There was a
telling article framed as a Brexit story in the Financial Times but the big
reveal was that Fusion research reactors (RESEARCH reactors!) have produced
enormous amounts of nuclear waste.https://mariannewildart.wordpress.com/2021/02/11/fusion-profligate-nuclear-waste-and-tritium-tainted-nightmare-for-cumbria-and-lancashire-no-thanks/
