All talk but little action on alternative fuels

As if it is a natural judgment! More you exploit the nature; more you are subjected to exploitation, any form that may lie beyond your imagination. Free sex culture, gifted the mankind with AIDS for its extinction. Over industrialization is leading mankind to grasping for clean air or water or pushing towards ironically starvations.
The industrial revolution, that started way back in late eighteenth or early ninetieth century and delivered a hordes of inventions to mankind for better living, have been exploiting the nature all along. See; the steam engine could initially not run without the fire woods, later coal. With the invention of automobile, exploitation of nature further increased by way of fossil oil pumping out of underground. Gradually the whole world has become dependent on fuel so much so, that without it the world is not even imaginable! The usage of burning woods and coal found exit to some extent because of electricity. But again for power generation, if not a hydel power generation system, then again to generate electricity fossil fuels; that is either petroleum or coal is needed.

Off late, solar power or wind power generation system is gaining popularity with many countries where nature permits them. In India, wind power is being generated along it`s southern coastal provinces by a corporate. But despite much is yet to be done and there are vast scopes for such generation remains unexploited. The government should offer special benefits to attract more and more players in this field. Same is applicable of solar energy exploitation. Little is done in this regards. In remote areas as in deltas of the province of West Bengal,India, government agencies put up some small projects to light specially it`s tourist destinations with solar batteries. But that again is too meager to make any dent comparing to the vast source what still remains unexploited.

What is surprising, we all know that the fossil fuel is not going to last forever. The current skyrocketing of crude prices globally is an outcome of such fear that the fossil fuel is going to last not so long as foretold earlier by experts. May be or may not be this is a rumor but anyway this is not going to long, that is sure. Then why there is no major research undertaken to find out an alternative of fossil fuel? US spends trillions of dollars on space research through NASA; but too little for such research. Neither much breakthrough is visible to develop the battery operated automobile.
