Power engineering

Green energy—cheap, safe, and inexhaustible," says Bill Joy, co-founder of the software company Sun Microsystems. "My day job is working on ecological methods and sources of energy. I believe that within the next 50 years, we will undoubtedly find an inexhaustible and safe source of green, environmentally friendly energy, which will also be significantly cheaper than any existing or currently produced energy. Ideally, such a source would be safe, could not be used to build new weapons, and would not produce toxic waste or carbon dioxide. I believe we will achieve this thanks to the latest discoveries in nanotechnology, which will enable the development of cheap and safe fusion methods or the discovery of entirely new technologies."
