Countries the world over are poised to spend trillions of dollars on what is arguably the dirtiest form of power generation known to man -- Nuclear Fission.
This short and informative article from New Scientist magazine provides an easy understanding of the various methods, compares fission and fusion, and briefs the reader on a promising new technology called Hybrid Nuclear Fusion.

04 March 2010 - New Scientist:
