What will aero engines use for a lubricant in 50yrs time???
Well, I recently found out that out of all of the fossil fuels that we burn, oil is the one that i going to run ou soonest. In 50 years in fact at the current rate of cunsumption.
Oil is such an important part of our lives......we use it in plastics, combustion as well as many other things.
My question is, if we are going to run out of oil, and presumably lubricants for our lovely powerplants, what are we going to ue to replace it?
Has anyone got any ideas as to what is being developed/alternatives?
