Why do people continue to use fossil fuel

[From: ] [author: ] [Date: 12-07-05] [Hit: ]
-It is incredibly easy for us to just continue to use a power source that is very efficient and works well than to switch to more greener sources of energy that dont quite work as well as our fossil fuels. And some countries thrive purely because of the oil trade more or so the middle eastern countries so if we switched their economy would collapse. To put it in easier words we havent found anything that works as well as fossil fuels so its very tough for us to switch-Basically because it will likely take a significant investment and significant government involvement to switch over and fully develop new sources to take the place of fossil fuels, and even though the payout may be great in the long run (especially when you consider part of the payout is helping to keep the planet liveable), seeing as our current politicians would be unwilling to agree on what time it is if it came to a vote, there is very little political will to do anything about it right now.......
We have electric power, solar power, and EVEN hydrogen or water powered car

Is it because big oil companies are greedy for money?
( I saw oil commercial and they say all the environmental friendly craps and other bullsh*t)
Is it to drawn in more customers?
why isn't the government taking action?

Because its less expensive and available and because all their energy driven equipment works with fossil fuels.

Of the three sources of energy you named, only one is not fossil fuel. You seem to misunderstand where your energy sources come from.

Ninety-five percent of the hydrogen on the market today is made from fossil fuels. Even the hyrodgen that is made by electrolysis, which is only 5% of the hydrogen available, is mostly made using electricity generated by fossil fuels. It is much more energy efficient to remove 4 hydrogen atoms from carbon, using methane as the raw material, than it is to remove 2 hydrogen atoms from an oxygen atom using water. For this reason, hydrogen is predominantly sourced from methane or coal.
