B3TA fixes the world
Moon Monkey says: Turn into Jeremy Clarkson for a moment, and tell us about the things that are so obviously wrong with the world, and how they should be fixed. Extra points for ludicrous over-simplification, blatant mis-representation, and humourous knob-gags.

The world has two (2) problems. We need to fix them both.
1. ENERGY
Seriously, we are fucking up the planet with fossil fuels. Common renewables such as wind and solar, even when combined, even when scaled up to the max, cannot provide enough energy for all humans to live nice comfortable modern lives. We need a new technology: we don't know yet what it will be, but we NEED it. One possibility could be Focus Fusion www.focusfusion.org/
2. POPULATION
We already have so many people that we need four (4) planets like this one to provide enough resources for all humans to live nice comfortable modern lives. To make matters worse, the world's population is growing incredibly fast. This has to stop! It's time for effective world-wide family planning.
Blimey, that was all a bit serious. Have a knob gag...
Q. Why mustn't you let your flies come undone in Russia?
A. Chernobyl fallout!

I kinda agree
1. Energy
It's called "Fission". We're quite good at it too. What we need are people who will read the reports that state you've just built your reactor in a tsunami zone and build the defences; not bury their heads in the sand and hope it goes away.
2. Population
Education is key. The more educated the population, the less likely they are to have a high birth rate. Also, stop treatments that simply add to the population problem (e.g. IVF).

Why go to the expence of all world wide family planning?
The next time we get a bird flu (or something similar) outbreak, we just let it run through the population and don't bother coming up with a cure.
Or you make it a law that those who jump out of a plane without a parachute get £1m. Those of us who aren't dumb enough to do it inherit the planet.

Chernobyl fallout! Ha!
Definitely this for the front page this week.

There has already been billions of research dollars pumped into fusion research and it's yet to generate a single fanny fart. We should be using that money to fund research in energy efficiency and energy storage which will enable us to make better use of the stocks we already have and to remove the intermittency problems from renewable energies.

That's billions of dollars is but a drop in the ocean.
They need more and a serious commitment from government.

It's billions more already than proven technologies get to spend on research!
