If we used only hydrelectric, wind, photovoltaic solar, geothermal, we could virtually eliminate burning the solar energy that was stored millions of years ago in the form of oil.
It would take some forward thinking and strong willed people to fight the powers in place now.
We could do it in a decade if we tried. It wouldn’t be hard, just expensive. Are you willing to give up your current transportion to save the world?

but first, you gotta figure out how to pour some electricity into the tank.
in 2 minutes or less.
so you can continue on whatever journey you’re taking.
what’s really going to happen is that eventually gas will become sufficiently expensive that something else will replace it. i think that something is unlikely to be just electricity, because of the length of time it takes to charge a battery.

Who knows? As long as there is oil under our feet, we will use every last drop of it because there are some very greedy people in this world. Some say we have enough oil hidden in reserves to last maybe 100 years. But here is the catch – the environment will certainly not sustain us for that long, so we are all pretty much SCREWED unless our leaders do something to the oil "bigshots" in regards to our oil dependency.
