What is a possible "green" fuel replacement for natural gas?
I don’t mean just for any energy, I mean specifically how it burns, like on a stove especially, but also as an option for heating homes. that’s the tough part, cooking on a stove, but environmentally friendly. its much different thatn cooking on an electric stove, and all of the professional chef’s probably wouldn’t stop using natural gas as a fuel. what other fuels can we use as a good alternative, could hydrogen work? i’m not sure, because i think it’s burning is more explosive than a nice, steady flame.

Some current forms of alternative automotive fuel energies that are used include biodiesel, ethanol, hydrogen, and electricity (in hybrid autos). Define each form and discuss which one(or another form of energy) that you think will have the best chance to become the next standard form of automobile fuel energy when petroleum becomes too scarce and/or too expensive. Be sure to provide reasons to back up your choice.

I’m a little unsure why developments of alternative, renewable, carbon free fuel sources appears to be so slow and confusing. You hear so often in the technology news or magazines of these amazing new prototypes that run on bio fuel, electricity, hybrid, hydrogen etc but a single standard doesn’t seem to be enforced and introduced into the mainstream market.
Is the biggest hurdle the oil companies? Or perhaps the car manufacturers? Or the governments earning tax? Or is it simply that the technology just isn’t there at the moment? Which I find hard to believe considering the other technological advancements we’ve developed.
