Nuclear Fusion, the eternal promise as renewable energy?

Fusion is the energy of the sun and the stars, and the largest source of energy in the universe. The ITER fusion reactor that has to rise in Cadarache, France, costs billions of euro's to be paid by a number of countries including Japan and the USA. China is already building its own nuclear fusion reactor. It's a battle between lobbyists for power, money and new techniques because all of the great powers want to protect their energy sources. Will the nuclear fusion the energy source of the future? We will know perhaps until 2050.
See on Wikipedia a larger definition of Nuclear Fusion and how it works.

Global warming is increasing! 3% CO2 more with each climing temperature degree

Each time the temperature on Earth climbs with 1ยบ, climbs the levels of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the air. The CO2 grows 3% with every degree the temperature is climbing.  This was discovered by a German-Swiss Science team.

Climate changes made by humans brings an additional emissions of greenhouse gases, says professor John Esper of the Geographical Institute of the Johannes Gutenberg University in Mainz. The global warming of the Earth increase because of this.

Air bubbles
The climate experts, together with the members of the Swiss institute for forest, snow and landscape and the universities of Bern, analyzed the climatic fluctuations over the last few thousand years. The scientists studied air bubbles in the ice of Antarctica and year rings of trees. In this way, the team was able to see how strong the CO2 concentration in the air was influenced by climate fluctuations in the pre-industrial period.

Climate change
This climate change disrupts the natural balance of the enormous quantities of carbon in the atmosphere, oceans, and the biosphere. Because of this long accumulation of carbon theirs been released extra CO2, that causing further warming feedback. As a result, the CO2 enreases more each time the temperature trend climbs. Today, the global temperature is 0,3 degree Celsius higher than in the hottest period of the last few thousand years.

Conclusion
So let us all together decrease the CO2 levels in our air that we need for living. So our children can breathe clean air and be healthy!
