Issues: Conservative Energy Environment

I advocate for clean water, clean air, and clean energy. I believe clean and non-dangerous nuclear fusion without nuclear waste is just around the corner based on reports coming from the USA lab in Livermore. Because nuclear fission reactors take at least 10 years to build commercially, I oppose this type of nuclear expansion in the USA because I believe fusion reactors will be commercially available in that time frame. I advocate for clean energy expansion now as a temporary solution until fusion becomes available and believe it will create jobs most quickly.

Finally, conservation of Northern California water and its acquifers are of my highest priorities.
