What will humans use as fuel after petroleum gets exhausted?( ineed this before half an hour please!!!!)?

Answer 1

Water...hydrogern and oxygen

HHO  gas  (hydrogen & oxygen)

can you say Hindenburg?

Answer 2

Could be from many different sources, it's really hard at this point which will be the best. I personally hope many different kinds as this way energy won't be monopolized, allowing theses energies to compete with each other. And maybe finally allowing the energy industry to develop like the other ones. At the moment you mostly hear about other energy sources that are complex and more expensive because they don't threaten the oil monopoly. There's also other research going on that you can only find through the internet and that threatens the oil industry. Many have claimed to produce free energy. Although there are a lot of skeptics, maybe we've been addicted to oil for so long that it's hard to accept new possibilities. I personally want to try the HHO experiments and witness the zero point energy possibilities.

Answer 3

We could use oil from algae; studies have shown we could replace all our energy needs with algae oil. You are also going to see more wind and solar power.

Funny thing about algae oil is that the government financed big studies in the 1970’s when the price of oil went up, several universities worked on the project and they found it was feasible, but not at the current price of oil at that time. Now that the price of oil is high we are seeing private companies putting private money into algae oil projects. (No I won’t post links to the companies you can search yourself unlike other here I’m not selling anything). There is at least one strain of algae whose oil can be used to produce, gasoline, kerosene, jet fuel, etc. So we’ll us a more expensive renewable source of oil, that what I think is going to happen.

Answer 4

Compressed air is used by the "World's Cleanest Car".

"BBC News is reporting that a French company has developed a pollution-free car which runs on compressed air. India's Tata Motors has the car under production and it may be on sale in Europe and India by the end of the year.

The air car, also known as the Mini-CAT or City Cat, can be refueled in minutes from an air compressor at specially equipped gas stations and can go 200 km on a 1.5 euro fill-up -- roughly 125 miles for $3. The top speed will be almost 70 mph and the cost of the vehicle as low as $7000."

Answer 5

For the most part we have the technology to to stop importing oil in the USA right now, we have had most of it for 20 years or more. But we are not moving. We must have renewable energy-concentrating solar, hydro, wind, wave, geothermal and nuclear.

Answer 6

Gas derived from the breakdown of refuse, and sugar cane.

Answer 7

hi akshy,

ya as petrole being exahstible resourse

it has to get over some day.

after that wonderfull moment ,may be the fuel man will be using is bio gas, even the car engines will be developed which can efficiently run on bio gas ,

intresting thing is that it will not pollute our environment .

hope so the moment comes soon , otherwise before petrole reserves get over the earth will  explod with its so called so lovely petrole cause of global warming

Answer 8

Vehicles powered by hydrogen fuel cells are already in development, and the technology for battery powered electric cars is improving all the time as well.  I think you will see a blend of these two technologies in the future.

Answer 9

if we survive global warming, we should try ultimately to use energy directly from the sun, from wind, waves and hydrothermal sources. we will also eventually learn how to use nuclear fusion. we will also learn how to store or convert this energy in our future cars, so we could use it for transportation

but the effects of global warming could very easily destroy our global civilization, and in that case, our energy needs will drop significantly, or vanish with us.
