Why We Need Hydrogen Cars

    There are serious problems that fossil fuel cars create. Some of these problems are depleted fossil fuel sources, pollution, and increased car production. Most of these problems could be eliminated with the use of hydrogen cars (See Fig. 7).

    The growing demand for fossil fuels is using up most of our fossil fuel reserves. Fossil fuels are not a renewable resource, so a new renewable energy source must be found.  The rising cost of gasoline as it is depleted will make the cost of switching to the infrastructure of hydrogen more acceptable. Since hydrogen is so plentiful it is the logical choice to fulfill our future energy needs.

    The pollution caused by gasoline cars is also a big issue in the environmental health of the Earth. The emissions of fossil fuel cars have been a main contributor in global warming.  Also there are toxic chemicals in the emissions of cars. Heavy metal particles emitted from automobiles can cause sickness and lung disease and pollute surrounding water ways. Hydrogen cars' only emission is a nice mist of water that you could drink.

    The increasing number of cars worldwide are causing the emissions to grow (See Fig. 8). Although new car technology has greatly reduced the total emissions of each car; the increasing amount of cars globally will increase the overall volume of emissions. Non-emission vehicles need to be introduced so we can control the size of our ecological footprint.

    The real problems that are associated with fossil fuel cars can be solved with the introduction of hydrogen vehicles. Hydrogen is plentiful, renewable and produces no harmful emissions.
