&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;So far, this series has focused on renewable energy: hydro, wind, and solar. But a complete assessment of decarbonization pathways must also consider non-renewable low-carbon sources:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Nuclear fission&lt;/strong&gt;: Mature technology, controversial politics&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Nuclear fusion&lt;/strong&gt;: The eternal promise, now perhaps closer&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Carbon capture and storage (CCS)&lt;/strong&gt;: Making fossil fuels &amp;quot;clean&amp;quot;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Hydrogen from fossil sources&lt;/strong&gt;: Currently the dominant production method&lt;/li&gt;
