Will our current autos be able to run on alternative fuel? What alternative fuel currently exists? Where can I get some?

Alternative fuel- What will happen when we run out of oil in 44.6 years, as is predicted?

We will all die. There plenty of alternatives to the Smokers. Just we will not see much until all the money made on oil first.
I agree. I suppose our best bet is hydrogen. People should start ditching their SUVs now, in case we need the fuel in the future. Who knows, we might need it for war or something important.
Right now we have hybrid cars, which were invented in 2000, EVs (electric vehicles), and scientists are developing a longer-lasting fuel cell. America already consumes 25% of the world’s total oil product, we need to do something about it now, before it becomes an even bigger problem in the future.
Adapt.
They already put 10% ethanol into the gas I buy. The pump said that. I read a story about a guy who converted his deisel car to run on used frying oil. He stoped at Chinese restaurants across the country to refuel. I’m not sure how much he paid. A bear at Yosemite tried to eat his car. A friend of mine is freinds with that guy. It really happened.
We will supposebly flying our cars by than, all by new technology type achievement as the famous psychic Sylvia Browne says haha,yea right.
37 + 44 = old/dead. I’m not too worried that ths is going to happen in my lifetime. Besides, most of our current autos aren’t going to be running in 44.6 years. I’ve burried several cars, the oldest was a 1978.
actually we won’t Run Out. It will just get so expensive it will be cheaper to convert coal to oil than to purchase oil.
I am sure by then we wont even need fossil fuel anymore !
we should have alternative fuel stations in i predict 2016 or less because we already have some alternative fuel statons already. but we will be alright.in South Carolina they have ethanol service stations in some places im sure they have some in every state. just check youre car manuel to see what kind of alternative fuels can run on it.
BMW and many other companies already have vehicles that use hydrogen in a combustion engine. That is by far the best alternative fuel. Although corn and sugar cane are being used more and more to help stretch the supply of gasoline. Also, if you have a diesel vehicle, you can buy used cooking oil that has been cleaned and burn it in your diesel motor. It is actually better for your engine than diesel is. It just smells like french fries going down the road, and has a much cleaner exhaust.
working at a gas plant i reckon if we run cars on hydrogen there would be a greater risk of cars blowing up, but in Australia i reckon it will be ethanol
we wont run out of oil. its a rediculous idea that we would ever run out. you probably still think oil is dead dinosaurs. some scientists believe oil actually reproduces itself. we have plenty of oil in the US but the hippies in the world wont let us get it. 44.6 years? have you ever noticed …always…experts are shocked..
Don’t worry about it. They’re finding more oil right now. And sooner or later we WILL drill in ANWR. Besides, the car you have now will not be here in 44.6 years.
Even if oil runs out in 44 years, we won’t be using gasoline to fuel our cars way before that happens. The biggest concern now is the pollution from burning fossil fuels. The affects of global warming is evident now with damage already caused by us.
Automobiles as we know them now will be fazed out in time and a new clean generation of cars will be our transportation.
There’s been a major breakthrough in being able to get fuel cheaply from, water!!! This has been reported on various TV Stations and newspapers! Check out: Check out the sources listed.
We wud have cars running on natural gas. Besides oil extracts from bio products like sugarcane, jakkarandha flowers etc. are into research/use currently.
