Nuclear Fusion Answer to Energy
Nuclear Fusion energy is commonly proposed to use of deuterium, an isotope of hydrogen. Lithium is used also as Nuclear fusion fuel and in many current designs.
If 1995 global power consumption is produced in fusion energy about 100 EJ/yr (= 1 x 1020 J/yr) and that this does energy demand does not increase in the future, then the known current lithium reserves mining would last 3000 years.
lithium from sea water would last 60 million years. The more complicated fusion process using only deuterium from sea water would have fuel for 150 billion years where 150 billion years is over ten times the currently measured age of the universe and it is close to 30 times the remaining lifespan of the sun. In turns of fuel required definitly nuclear fusion answer to energy crisis we face today.
