The Hummer H2...Oh

Mass-market hydrogen car is ready to roll

I always have to start these critiques with 'but I do like the idea of hydrogen'.

Two things. The car may be ready to roll. Getting the fuel into the car in any way that saves the planet... less so.

Plus, let's not forget that car makers don't really want us to travel any less. And whichever way you cut it, it's the travelling that uses the fuel that is simply energy that has to be created somehow.... that, for now, means CO2.

But it's a nice thing to look at for the future. Just let's be careful with the zero emissions claims, eh?

Times - Fuel cells drive into the future -

Times - Up, up and away – the hydrogen car is here
