Call me naive but if such a viable hydrogen engine such as the one being described in the article is here, wouldnt it be just as easy (or easier) shift focus to building out more renewable energy infrastructure than to try and mine the earth for the lithium required to power everybody’s car?

If anything, this hydrogen technology should be the excuse we need to immediately focus on renewable power buildout.

The question is who will pay and will those entities be willing to accept the risk?
Whose gonna pay when all the people living in miami are displaced by it being under water and New York City becomes New Miami?

And whose gonna pay when marine life collapses and shellfish cant make shells because the all of the oceans’ ph is off? Hell there might not even be a need for money because there might not be anyone left!
