If we add this massive amount of fusion energy to the earths system, will the temperature of the earths ecosphere and atmosphere eventually rise? Wouldn’t it be like turning up the heat from the sun? Are we finite or what?

Decade late and dollar short? The Chinese are probably light years ahead of the world for developing fusion reactors.
