I was hoping to read more stories about breakthroughs, based on your comment that there is a breakthrough once a year, but I could only find about 1 breakthrough story for every two years.

There needs to be a breakthrough once a month, considering the magnitude of this problem.

prefer that technology solve it, but support government doing it if necessary.

who mostly funds these studies? I thought the government funded them but I didn't get a definitive answer from a relatively brief search. I see the U.S. Dept. of Energy invested $13.4 million two years ago.
