Peak Oil

[DamnthatDavid]

Hydrogen, yes, takes energy to make, but not as much as you think.

It will be cheaper, and use less oil (For the Power Plants) to power one hydrogen car for a year, then a standard gasoline powered auto.
Oh fucking well, they have to built 1 more powerplant dedicated to powering a hydrogen plant. That one Power Plant will still use less oil then it would take to keep a local populace driving around in Gasoline gars.

Hydrogen is not the final solution, but it a step forward. Until we discover a abundent energy source, we will just have to cut back on the fuel consumption. Thermal Energy is the way to go.
