Oil has already become obsolete, due to the discovery of something like a cold fusion power plant that is currently in the process of being patented…
Thus, the oil producing economic community (NOT what “OPEC” stands for btw) - are managing the decline. Saudi Arabia wants rid of it’s stockpiles without Russia whom everyone hates - crushing the price with their sales on the black market… China, won’t want to pay Russia for the “fixed price contract” they are in the middle of neither. Likely they will default, if they have not already done so. That China is thus buying on the open market again - pushes prices higher today, when yesterday we saw talk on the CNBCbeebies channel about “Oil falling to $3 per barrel”.
Thus “Market forces” achieve what the Greens wanted all along - but now the commitment to get rid of cars by 2030 falls flat, because petrol is going to be as cheap as chips pretty darn soon now…!
Keep your car.
Fill it up for less.
Electric? - Too expensive, too little supporting infrastructure, and electricty is still jolly expensive.
F… the Paris accord. Trump’s got the right idea. Let’s use up what stocks we have - whilst it still fetches enough of a price to make it worth having an “industry” about it.
Fusion is as if not more dangerous than fission with similar radioactive isotopes and radioactive waste issues.Even if it could be persuaded to give out more energy than it takes.
The price of road fuel here is all about punitive taxation not the pre tax price regardless.That’s why large falls in the price of crude aren’t reflected at the pumps.
Yes petrol/LPG fuelled engines are the way forward for road transport with around 30 kwh contained in every gallon and cleaner than diesel.
As opposed to 20p per kwh + tax for electric + battery costs and weight penalty.With the risk of nuclear disaster when these global warmist zbwits aren’t burning trees instead of coal.
What we have is a massive opportunity in the automotive sector in the large scale move away from diesel engines.Instead of which it wants to get on the pathetic electric bandwagon. 
What if Science has made a secret breakthrough, where a major stumbling block in the path of Clean Fusion has been overcome now?
Imagine if ■■■■ Germany for instance, had discovered in 1940 that you don’t need Heavy Water to build a fission weapon - you can actually replace the entire need for D2O with a block of GRAPHITE?
…Had the Germans found out in time, the only sign in public would be a shortage of bleistifts, and then suddenly in time for Barbarossa - Hey Presto! A truck-driven dirty bomb ready to be taken deep into enemy territory! Come 1944 - Piedmunde would ensure a “New York Ranged” delivery vehicle completed what would have been a completely different course of history…
I suggest that "What if someone has discovered how to initiate fusion without the use of dangerous isotopes, chamblers liable to explode, or chemically damage the test region?"
Take the “Danger” out of the equation, and Fusion has got to be a winner, simply because it is hardly “Yet to be discovered” - but rather “uncommercial, on account of the hazard to user”… Just like early Aircraft and still the case with Rocketry eh?
Moisture might well be the “Fuel of the Future” - rather than “Poisons” or even “Water”…
Why the need for CLEAN water?
Get past that - and the concept of using wet rubbish comes into play…
Just think: Dustmen would moan because they’re all out of work overnight, and we’d have dustbin divers chucking old TVs and electrical gear that has been thrown out aside, - to nick your sloppy bananaskins and compost at the bottom of the bin!!
