It has been a known fact for many years that there are more environment friendly and better transportation methods available. And I am sure that politicians worldwide would admit that many of these systems would be ideal, or at least a fantastic step in the right direction. Unfortunately we have to factor in present world reality into the equation, and that factor is one of the most critical industries worldwide, which we all know is the "Petroleum Industry". Like it or not, it is among the largest economical dependencies on earth for nearly every nation. Hopefully a way will eventually be found to phase out the absolute dependency on fossil fuels, but at present, it would be utterly impossible to replace the "Petroleum Industry" without totally devestating the worlds economy. Let us hope and pray that a solution will one day prove pheasable to gradually incorporate better transportation methods before it is too late, without a cataclysmic devestaion of the worlds economy.
