Fossil fuels are running out what will power our economies then?

from JoeUser Forums

The other day when driving all day in my car and thinking about a documentary I have seen about different scientific endeavors to find the new ultimate energy source, I was thinking what will happen when we'll run out of fossil fuels. Considering the way they were created, it is not possible to start producing more of them, and it is also undeniable that they WILL run out. What other source of energy can replace them? I mean solar, wind, hydro energy can power static sources like houses, but what about fuels that will power airplanes or boats for example?

I know solar powers space missions, but I am not sure it can power airplanes securely...also, what will happen once we do not have the fossil fuel backup anymore?

What happens when the sun turns into a red giant?

Here is my personal rule of thumb on news stories.

If I don't witness it with my own eyes it is fake news

until overwhelming evidence changes my mind.

When the journalist uses the term confidential source,

that allows them to make up any thing they want.

eminem should run for president.

There are lots of energy options. The problem is that no one wants to start converting. Nuclear is the current favorite. You forgot about electric and natural gas powered cars.
