What’s involved?
*What can you do?*
*Become educated about the hydrogen economy, look at the suggested reading as a start, and try to get your council, state or federal government to begin switching to hydrogen. Remember, it will take a huge amount of resources, and hence fossil fuels, to complete the switch, so the sooner we start, the better.
*Stay updated on the car industries progress, some say they are three years away from mass producing a hydrogen/petrol car which can run off either fuel. When they come out, buy them, and run them off hydrogen.
*Further reading*
*The Canadian company "Ballard" has been testing its fuel cell technology in hydrogen powered buses since 2003 mostly in Canada, but also in Perth! Check it out at http://www.ballard.com/.
*James Williams' "WTRG Economics" site has heaps of information about the price of crude oil. Check it out at http://www.wtrg.com/index.html.
*Watch Iceland. They are attempting to be the first completely sustainable hydrogen economy. Find out more by reading this "article":http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/programmes/newsnight/archive/2208013.stm by BBC News journalist Shirin Wheeler.
*Use Google, or any other search engine. Developments on the hydrogen economy happen fast at times, so stay up to date!
I want to do this!
