The irony in the argument is that in order to manufacture the items that will be used for creating Alternative energy, is done by using fossil fuels. How do you effectively address lubrication with out oil?

lubes are a tiny fraction of our oil use, but sure oil isn't going away - it will just be reduced over time ( a much longer time period than coal)
then there's the issue of how you get oil - plants make oils, or you can syn it up your self instead of cracking it down
but I see no reason to worry about lubricant usages - such a small impact on GHGs and there is plenty of oil in the ground so no supply issues for centuries, or millenia
