Title: Japan's 'fantasy' hydrogen strategy does nothing for decarbonization

Grey hydrogen is basically spending fossil fuels to create H2. Seems like a fundamentally broken pillar for an environmental initiative.

Yeah, just like we need more battery advancement, we'd also need more hydrogen production advancements so it's not just coming from fossil fuels. Or advancement in whatever other clean fuels.

Liquid Hydrogen... Tough to produce, impossible to store, and the answer to none of our issues

We need a Business Insider article on the appalling labor conditions & child labor used in hydrogen mines in Malawi or somewhere. The NYT & NPR would pick it up & run with it.
Sure fire way to knock this nonsense on the head.
