The car of the future

well i wonder if it is even profitable to keep cars, especially if we find a new resourse for feul, even if we do get off the oil industry it will still be deeply involved. oil is in our plastics and rubber materials and even in our food. so regardless a future car is highly improbable. so regardless i don't think cars will last properly for another hundered years. nor any other oil processed quantity.

"Anti-gravity stuff" uses power too. You don't lift something without putting energy in.

Oil will be around and destroying the Earth unless something drastic happens in America and certain middle East countries. Even if perfect nuclear fusion could be achieved economically, oil produce wouldn't decrease - too many countries political and corporate systems rely on it.

Actually statistics provide us with the fact that we are right now coming to the margin of the oil prices and how much it costs to mine oil. In about 35 years it is said that we will depleate all our oil reserves. It is possible to mine oil from other things like sand and such but economically speaking it will cost them more to mine the oil from sand then finding oil wells. They won't get any profit from the oil they sell. and if they were to mine it this way it would be like thirty dollars a litre just to stay above the oil mining/profit ratio. So dont expect oil to be around too much longer, even with all these corprate and political systems rely on it.

Ans perfect nuclear fusion is too far off, and too easily manipulated for destruction to be properly used.

And cars that run off vegitative oils are already out there.

Too true

But they guzzle it faster then anything.

And get this the cheapest vegitation oils come from hemp. So if we want some good clean vegitation oils then were gonna need a lot of hemp.

It may sound stupid, but the perpetual energy is another point...

Whatever happened to "Beam me up, Scotty!"?
