Descripción
Abstract: The damage caused to the environment because of the greenhouse gases emissions is mainly due to the use of fossil fuels. These are used for generating energy and they are not renewable resources. The current renewable resources for generating energy, such as wind and solar power, are not capable of being the principal source of energy for the countries. Also, nuclear fission, which is proposed as alternative form of renewable energy, present well known disadvantages like safety and radioactive waste. Fusion energy can fix these problems although it has been complex to develop it to become a massive source of energy. Currently, because of the advancement in physics, science and engineering, it has been possible to develop a method that allows to overcome the greatest difficulty of fusion: containing the fuel to millions of degrees. A recent development, the Tokamak, can carry out and generate energy from fusion given its design and magnetic confinement capacity. With the necessary investment and development of this energy, the growing energy consumption around the world could be satisfied in a clean and safe way
