Let’s say that the global oil reserves could be depleted in about 40 years from now, but if the consumption will be reduced due to the development of the renewable energy sector, I think that these fossil fuel reserves will be left in the ground where they belong.
The good part of the fact that fossil fuels are ending their existence soon has led to the development of the renewable energy sources, that will change the entire world into a cleaner and healthier place to live.
In terms of transport, we know that we have at least 2 billion vehicles in the world today, and almost all of them burn fossil fuels.
There are a few cars that work with LPG because this fuel is cheaper and also has slightly lower emissions, but they are not very popular among drivers.
The electric car market is a developing market, because more and more car makers are getting involved in this sector.
Tesla produces for now only high performance electric vehicles which are not affordable for anyone, but many other car makers are entering the scene with new models which are more affordable for a wider range of customers.
Today we can buy affordable electric vehicles created for city use or for short distances around the city, but with the development of the infrastructure of charging stations for these vehicles, we can extend the distance and use these vehicles even for longer trips.
The regulations for car emissions are getting tighter every year, so if you plan to buy a new car, go check the offer for electric vehicles and ask if there is any infrastructure of charging stations in your area.
If there are no charging stations you will use the car only on distances limited to the range of the vehicle, but if you live in an area with a complex infrastructure of charging stations you will be able to use the vehicle like a regular one, but with lower costs.
And this is happening only in the year 2015, you can imagine that the near future will bring even more electric vehicles on the market and the green technology will slowly replace all the old technology that pollutes.
