Es el título de una presentación sobre combustibles, y hay un juego de palabras... se me ocurre "alimentar el futuro" o "darle energía al futuro". ¿Alguna sugerencia?

Muchas gracias!

los combustibles y la impulsión del futuro


Explanation:
Creo que a veces en los títulos hay que despegarse de la literalidad. Una cosa que nos machacaron en la cabeza en las clases de español y de inglés de la facu, es que esta forma tan típica en inglés y sobre todo en AmE, de los títulos con -ing, no es propia del español, y cuando lo es, más bien se trata de calcos.

Así que, sugiero esta propuesta, que no es quizá una traducción "exacta", pero una "exacta" sería "ponerle combustible al futuro", que queda un poco ridículo.
