I was refering to Europe. hidrogen cars are beeing used. And there are special pomps at fule staions across europe most of them in germany where you can refuel your car .
Also an icreasing demans is made on the large oil corporations to put on theyr fuelstations electric hdrogen and bio fuel pumps.
And wheather they like it or not they have to do so since its EU regulations that force them to do so.
They dont really have a choice.
Regarding the suburban lifestyle in the US im wondering when or rather how hard will the US society e hit when cheap oil wont be available to them anymore. Dont know how they can keep the price down as it is.
Anyway any ill effect that will have on the lifestyle they deserve it since the choice they made was theyr own. Noone forced them to do so. They made an educated guess or rather not an educated guess since they did not really care about the consequences since they firmly believed the gouverment would find them new cheap oil either by inventing some new reasons to bomb a few oil rich countries or whatever.
Be that as it may i still ca not fully blame the american society since well the leaders are the one most at fault folowed closely by the society.
They should of known better . Oil wasnt suposed to last forever.
Also since Europa has faced deminishing oil reserves for almost a century now its only natural that europe would invest the most in other fuel develpment tech. and stuff like that.
