Natural gas of course.
But that is not the problem.
See, I don't think Canadians understand just how many coal plants there are in the world. Like, there's thousands. Look at a USA coal plant map. It's farking nuts. They're converting as fast as they can to NG. That in itself will drastically reduce CO2 emissions. Like, there's 200 year old coal plants finally being replaced. Yippee.
Germany opened up a new coal plant, because their emissions are so low. Think about that.

How will we manufacture anything without combustion? Another serious question.

Can't. Metallurgical coal will be used until civilization falls. There is no other way to have a blast furnace.
