Natural gas is a dead end technology as well. There are safety issues as well as pollution issues, and the stuff isn’t that great to burn off - one of the byproducts of CNG combustion is *formaldehyde*.
The only way forward seems to be hydrogen and electric - and building more nuclear power plants.

That’s too bad, since neither electric or H2 are “fuels”. One must burn some fuel or use nuclear energy to get either of them...
