The future lays with Hydrogen technology and if the climate change brigade are correct about rising sea levels then there will be plenty of water from which to take the hydrogen. Run the gas guzzlers, warm the planet, melt the ice cap and fuel the Hydrogen vehicles. Now that is an exercise in sustainability.

I can just hear my missus bitching now about the coal making her clothes dirty as she stokes the boiler on my Coal Activated Personal Recreational Innovation (CAPRI).

Yes, I see the realists in the good 'ol US of A are going around with a stencil spray painting the Tesla charger units with "powered by coal".
