What are the benefits of hydrogen-powered vehicles?
Every time you pump gasoline into your car, you’re ever so slightly depleting the world’s supply of fossil fuels. These fuels, which include petroleum and coal, are the condensed remains of living organisms from prehistoric times. The supply of these fuels is limited and will eventually run out. Worse, much of this supply of petroleum is controlled by a few nations blessed with an abundance of oil and these nations can dictate both the petroleum supply and its price. Furthermore, dependence on fossil fuels by a nation like the United States further complicates already complex matters of foreign relations and national security. Fossil fuels have met much of the world’s energy needs for several centuries, but there is a limit to how long they can continue to do so in the future.
