Hydrogen leaks. Wouldn’t want to live too near that pipeline. Then again, unless major environmental improvements have been made in the past 15 years or so I wouldn’t want to live by the ship channel either.
We have used hydrogen in pipes for refineries for decades.
Air Products already has over 600 miles of hydrogen pipelines.

We are pretty safe. Houston is a place where people still work and produce something. And if you didn’t know, the ship channel is heavy industry at it’s best. Massive industrial area, but safe, and not killing people. Rare incidents happen, but more people die getting to work today than in this area at work.

Amazing view of the ship channel at night. Go full screen, watch it on a full screen. See what amazing things are happening.
Hydrogen leaks and carbon monoxide leaks are unlikely to kill us. Hydrogen sulfide? Different story.
Hydrogen explosion? Boom.
