         <title>The Problem - Fusor</title>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>The problem that we are trying to solve is the looming problem of the abuse of non-renewable energy sources on both humanity and the environment. Fossil fuels create bad air emissions and destroy ecosystems in oil drilling. It’ll also be detrimental for humanities and our machines once we run out of fossil fuels and our entire energy grid shuts down. We aim to solve that.</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>The Biofuel Processors seen today have major flaws with them concerning the pollution and wait times that come from current biofuel processors. Current biofuel processors have lengthy wait times and produce a lot of pollutants. We can solve this by finding a way to make them more efficient while also reducing the pollutants emitted. </p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>What do people care about:</p><p>- cost of electricity and power, power prices may go down as the fusors make use of less expensive materials when compared to fission reactors which make use of Uranium-235 which is scarce and requires a long and expensive refining process to be used for power generation. This drives up the cost of power which is what we aim to reduce.</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>People need access to cheap electricity as many modern day appliances rely on electricity. If electricity cost are reduced we can increase the number of people that have access to electricity. Fission is costly which is why the development of nuclear fusion will aid in reducing the cost of electricity.</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>Fusors produce less waste compared to fission which produces lots of radioactive waste which is costly to dump. Fusors have the potential to be safer than fission reactors due to them producing less ionizing radiation than fission reactors which require more safety measures to counteract the ionizing waves produced by the reactions. This reduces the amount of exposure to ionizing radiation experienced at nuclear power plants which ensures a higher level of safety. The fusor will also reduce the cost of electricity as it produces more energy per kilogram (kg) compared to fossil fuels which are also a heavily used source of energy. This will impact people in lower incomes as they will have to worry less about electricity bills and ensure that their budget constraints are loosened.</p>]]></description>
