The US National Ignition Facility has achieved even higher energy yields since breaking even for the first time in 2022, but a practical fusion reactor is still a long way off
I would still argue those are less catastrophic than Chernobyl, Fukushima, Three Mile Island, etc. Their destructive effects disappear a lot quicker than a nuclear catastrophe negative effect would.
Having said that, oil is second worse after nuclear. I’m not advocating for oil.

No form of energy generation is 100% perfect.

Well, then stop moving them. /shrug
I have not.
I’m sorry, I can’t take the word of someone who’s afraid of zombies.
