The hydrogen myth
Scientifically, creating hydrogen requires more energy than what it releases, making this process a nonsensical approach. Hydrogen derived from natural gas entails a 60% loss, so will always be more expensive than straight-burning natural gas
Hydrogen energy sources
* Photolysis * Electrolysis * Thermal processes H2 can be released from water and biomass wastes by heating them to temp between 3000 and 5000 deg F)

Hydrogen from anaerobic bacteria
Some anaerobic bacteria remove 99.99% of the carbon monoxide (is this CO or CO2?) from their surroundings while producing H2 at 20 times their own volume per minute

Hydrogen is not an energy source
Hydrogen is considered an energy carrier, a secondary form of energy because it has to be produced, like electricity

Amount of H2 produced globally
In 1999, about 400 billion cu m of H2 were produced globally. This is the equivalent of 10% of global oil production in 1999
