In discussions with my environmentalist friends and relatives, many of them react to the news that hydrogen isn't really a fuel--simply an energy storage medium, like a battery--with shocked disbelief. This reflects the poor quality of science education in government schools and the unblinking credulity of people determined to believe that "big oil" is the only reason we consume fossil fuels. Unless environmentalists are willing to start burning uranium, hydrogen is going to be produced by natural gas on a small scale, and later, by coal.

Must have slept through science (along with a few other classes) but when hydrogen is 'consumed' to make energy, what happens to it?
Is hydrogen still produced via electrolysis? Other more efficient systems available to make it?
