Where does alternative fuel stand as choices governments will allow us to chose from?

Question

Electric hybreds. Would finding an efficent way to use methane gas within a hybred or indipendently as an alternative source of fuel be a more inteligent ecinomical way? The use of some of the worlds largest food suppliers to produce ethinol that in turn raises the cost of food the world over and everything else that is affected by such as well.

Answer 1

I think governments generally allow any fuel to be used as long as it meets emission standards.  They just may not subsidize the use or development of some sources and may make restrictive legislation to slow their development.  Ultimately though, when a better source is found, it will come to dominate the market.

Answer 2

I don't know where you are; but here, the government does not decide what fuel choices I have.  These are determined by the market place.
