This is why I like Shell, I mean in Washington D.C. and other large cities they actually already have many hydrogen fuel stations. They are actively looking for non-oil solutions for future green energy.
We are coming up on a huge change for humanity with ever dwindling fossil energy supplies. Literally everything that we do is connected to fossil energies, it is all produced, all moved and shipped, and all operated by the power of these resources. The sooner that we start to act the better off we will be, we need a large change in the way we do things. A worst case scramble scenario could be very bad, as we will have limited fossil fuel energy to help us build and set up new sustainable infrastructures for the future, without this jump start it could be a very bumpy transition to sustainability. This could include a near total melt down of current infrastructures from food production to basic city utilities. Questions and ideas to consider:Is personal transportation for all a sustainable answer?What is the most efficient way to move large amounts of people and goods across large and smaller distances? Trains?How will we handle the production and distribution of food? How might this be linked to the distribution of populations and work forces? Would a bunch of small towns that are locally supported work best? Linked by train lines? Larger cities that have resources shipped in by train?Are we totally F*ed?
