electric cars for kids from china image
For peace
The price of petrol and diesel are rising day by day and our hydrocarbon reserves are diminishing...Although researches are still going on..to find a substitute,what else can we do to prevent "lack of fuel" condition??
Any ideas?Any sugestions??
Johnnie, as you said,the earth recycles....but,it takes a huge amount of time for that...Also...the organic matter(such as plants,animals etc..) are also getting used up..
Answer
First thing we could do would be to talk about it, spread awareness, let people know that there is an issue which needs to be tackled before it turns into a crisis. You posing this question depicts that we (at least you) have got the first step right.
Let me first state that in my opinion, there is no out-of-the-box easy solution for this. The only answers are search for newer and non-traditional sources of energy like geothermal energy, tidal energy, solar energy, liquid hydrogen, garbage energy etc and exercise controlled and minimized use of non-replenishable sources of energy.
Here are a few suggestions-
1- Save oil!
Seen as a caption in many of the children's painting competitions- "Save Oil!" should be the motto of everyone around the planet. Personal automobiles should be used less. Public transport facilities should be ameliorated.
2- Go CFL!
Compact fluorescent light bulbs should replace the energy consuming electric bulbs. Likewise, age-old machines should make way for the modern energy efficient appliances.
3- Check vehicles!
What was the last time you neglected your bike/ car's poor average and mileage? Over-consumption should be kept under check by keeping your ride in good condition.
4- Search!
Search for new oil reserves might just buy us more time to think over and solve the impending crisis.
5- Fire and oil make a deadly combo...
Keep the oil refineries and reserves well protected from fire. Not only these accidental fires cause a loss of money and lives, they result in huge loss of the natural resources.
6- Encourage the solar cooker.
Don't mock the nuclear plant. It is a shy but bright kid. Kidding! Ok bad joke... I mean to say- we should slowly work towards establishing non-traditional sources of energy in our lifestyles. Nuclear energy still has a wide scope of application. Same with hydroelectric, solar, wind and other alternatives.
7- Turn off the lights, switch off the fans....
You're probably yawning reading this. This had been repeated so many times but still... you have to save energy in day-to-day affairs.
8- Spread awareness.
Yes, we need more campaigns. The chapters in our social-studies books have already told and retold us all these things but, there is a certain crowd that needs to be told about this in a more effective manner.
9- Smokeless and fuel efficient chulhas.
Here, in India, villages still rely on fuel wood and coal for their basic energy needs. The smokeless chulhas (stoves) go a long way in conserving wood from blind consumption.
10- Use Biogas.
We need more biogas plants. They, in my view, are the best and simplest alternatives in terms of energy cycling. Go biogas! So what if it doesn't smell like roses?
11- Population!
All these measures are of no or little use if the consumption still keeps growing. How about we put a check on population growth? We have been listening to this since the beginning! Do something! Take lessons from China!
12- Plant trees....
Again a well-known and over-discussed solution. We need more mass campaigns. More fuel wood trees and shrubs should be grown.

Answer
Powered exoskeletons may be seen on some construction sites in Japan and on the future battlefields of america's conquest choosing. We won't be going to mars for another 20 years hence. America will still be locked in the battle between red and blue. Dubstep will fall out of popularity and begin its long and sad spiral into only being played in the underground. Good riddance. Justin beiber will stop performing and live out the rest of his days in luxury. I myself am not a fan at all, but I don't hate the kid personally. Meanwhile, his fans will grow up and find themselves on their own musical journeys and start listening to other kinds of music that they were once hostile and averse towards. I think its a reasonable assumption. I don't think there is going to be any total war this century. Youtube might even fall out of favor and be replaced by something else. I can't imagine thugs on the streets driving around in electric cars. They predict that the economy may take another plunge and so things are fixing to get worse. China is a couple of inches away from complete societal upheaval. Russia is limping into the new world and may find itself again feeling like they have accomplished something good with themselves governmentaly speaking yet again. A glorious societal rainbow of cultural goodness, if you count that rainbow as red, powder blue and white. Tibet will still be under Chinese rule. South park and My little pony will be on reruns long before the end of the next decade.
Rail guns may be seen on american ships capable of lobbing projectiles up to 400 miles away at supersonic speeds. The ISS may have lives out its operational life span and be de-orbitted. Israelites may have developed better anti theater ballistic missile technology than they have today.
