The dichotomy of the following two articles delineated by an image of a south korean diplomat is very telling. In the usa laws have been passed that want to force  energy consumption away from oil or ga by force, but in korea, the only alternative to keep up supply is to use a series of nuclear fusion reactors which will produce the most toxic waste.

Supreme Court Hands Crucial Victory To Biden-Harris Admin
Story by James Edwards
Multiple states have objected against the Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) regulations on greenhouse gas standards for power plants, as reported by Benzinga.com. However, the U.S. Supreme Court provided a favorable ruling that allows the Biden-Harris regulation to move forward. The EPA's new rules require existing coal and new natural gas power plants to cut or capture 90% of their climate pollution by 2032. This is projected to reduce carbon dioxide emissions from these plants by 75%.

Korea to plan to build four SMRs
Story by 신하늬 
Korea will include a plan to build four small modular reactors (SMRs) in the upcoming basic energy plan to be announced later this year, a senior presidential aide said Sunday.
Park Sang-wook, presidential secretary for science and technology, said in a television interview with public broadcaster KBS that the SMRs will be reflected in the 11th basic plan for electricity supply and demand.

 
SMRs are ready-to-install modular reactors that are smaller in size and power output compared with traditional nuclear reactors, allowing for more flexible and scalable deployment.

 
"To achieve the output equivalent to one large nuclear power plant, we need to group together about four SMRs, each with a generating capacity ranging from 170 megawatts to 350 megawatts," Park said during the interview.

 
Park highlighted SMRs as a next-generation growth driver and a key export product, expressing hope for bipartisan support for their inclusion in the upcoming energy plan.
