2. Despite the lies put forth by the fossil fuel industry's attempts to disparage clean energy technology...

...GREEN Hydrogen is produced only from non-fossil fuel energy sources makng it an inexpensive (clean tech is cheaper than FF tech now) and extremely sustainable solution to the storage of intermittently produced wind and solar.

More than 98% of the hydrogen produced on this planet (for captive use) is produced by the steam reformation of the dangerous fossil fuels, which is, of course, the reason we need to hasten the build-out of all non-CO2 emitting energy production.

As is the case with all fossil fuel bullshit, electrolysis actually has nothng to do with thermodynamics, as it is produced and transfers it's energy without the wasted heat energy of fossil fuels and despite the regular hype about needing precious metal electrodes, electrolysis is no longer restricted by the materials requirements, thanks to the recent decade of "breakthroughs."

The fossil fuel marketing lie that there is no other possible source of energy than fossil fuels or nuclear was tiresome all through the late 20th century, and is even worse and more stupid and dishonest in the 21st.
