The
Evolution of Fuel
Since the beginning of human history, man has sought to fuel his
energy needs.
Only advanced and civilized societies could have taken advantage
of fossil fuels to produce the standard of living enjoyed by much
of the world today.
Nevertheless,
mankind's fuels have continually evolved as better, more efficient,
safer, and cleaner fuels have become available. From wood, to
coal, to natural gas, to hydrogen, a clear trend to lighter, cleaner
fuels is apparent.
"The
Stone Age didn't end because they ran out of stones; the Oil Age
won't end because we run out of oil." –Don Huberts, Shell
