What fuels are going to use in the future?
Asked by Wiki User
Fossil Fuels are running out - that is a known fact. Unlike the doomsayer's would have you believe - it wont be tomorrow. There is plenty of time to find an alternative resource - and many alternative methods have already been deployed. Hyrdogen powered cars are already available in more than one country - and electric / solar powered cars have been around for years, however they are not exactly feasible for large scale use.
As for uses.. all companies / gov't across the globe are working to decline it's usage. There are mandates in place that force auto companies in the US to have more efficient cars in the comming years. More and more people are trying to limit their use of fossil fuels - but for the forseeable future it will be our main source of energy for some time to come.
