- Hydrogen is prolly better then any other source once you have it, it show extremely potent results(better then gas by far). The current process to make hydrogen require so much electricity it is not efficient. But we could create hydrogen with electricity derived from wind. (hydrogen is the H2 in the H2O part, so creating it release oxygen, and wasting it create no ''waste'') I expect racing cars and competing folks to be the first to use it.
- Batteries are use in ''hybrid'' cars(as the main source and the gas take over as your batterie deplete, progressively, so you maintain the same performance and dont notice it except for the board and the the arrows saying what is depleted).
- Nuclear could prolly work if we dont care about the wasted that we cant get rid of.
- Solar power (think of Opportunity and Spirit), however, it is better when used as a hybrid power source to refill batteries.

That is harder. I call a friend but he is not home, he work with plastics a lot and could have tell better.
From memories, I would say we can work with alternate products but that is harder, because plastic have a huge variety and flexibility that you dont find as easily with other products.
''Glass fiber'' can replace some plastics(boats usually stick with those rather then with plastics), but hardly all of them. Many products from vegetal origins can be worked out.
Personnally I cant bear plastic containers for drinks and all, I feel they leave a taste in the product(think of milk in plastic or in others containers).
Replacing oil in the car will be easier then in the plastics...a lot easier. I dont see how we can have good tires(wheel or whatever) without using plastic atm.

Plastics If you scroll down you will find some stuff about Green plastics etc (under 'Prices and the Future')

there where 2 differant people that created a engine that ran off of water many years ago they both no longer talk strong armed. one was brought to univercity of davis CA. the tests they ran showed it ran more horse power than a gas engine of equal size. finding material on this is hard but does exist. running a car on water is the best alternative than anything out there right now but god forbid we we get ride of gas in cars right now before we run out of oil lol.
