The DOE has FIRED over 500 physicists and technicians at particle accelerators and fusion projects in order to fund this.

This is no joke.

Physicists are leaving the field all over the country now.

Undergrad and Grad students are changing majors.

SLAC laid off 200
FermiLab laid off 200
Cornell laid off 30+
DOE has abandoned support for ITER - Tokomak/ fusion.

The money that they are wasting on this CO2 garbage, or ethanol, would easily have allowed full funding of these important projects for the future.
