"I believe that a major thrust of U.S. policy regarding ALL Mideastern countries should be the 'fast track' development of the production and distribution of hydrogen energy."
Interesting point... energy may play a big role in our problems in the ME but it is not the only problem. Besides, if we Americans seriously started the transition toward an H2 economy today we might get there in 50-100 years. Asia, Africa and Europe would have to be in lock step with us or the idea is virtually pointless. That's why we didn't sign the Kyoto Protocol...
Have you studied the H2 scenario?
I agree, but depriving them of the primary source of terrorist funding would be a positive thing.
Have you studied the H2 scenario?
I have a rudimentary understanding. I believe thermal water splitting shows tremendous potential. I believe the cost advantage of hydrogen over oil would be the driving force behind its adoption by China, etc.
