Transports: Searching for Alternative Fuels | SLICE EARTH

4 months ago 24


Fossil fuels have given the citizens of industrialised civilization a life that previously could only have been imagined by kings. We have had so much cheap energy to burn that we have fallen into routines of almost unbelievable waste. Our cars, homes, and factories typically waste more than half the energy they consume, even as our fuel reserves dry up and our atmosphere turns against us.

In theory, the solutions are simple: reforming our transport system, localising our supply lines and re-engineering our built environment. All over the world communities are embracing this transition – but it will take a truly global effort for that to solve our crisis.
