Have any of these low grade morons ever proposed a viable/economic alternative.
The World Watch Institute actually did back in the early 1990s: a solar-hydrogen economy. Solar energy would be used for electrolysis to break down water, and then the resulting hydrogen could be burned for energy, resulting in water again. However, there wasn’t much mention of how hydrogen molecules are so tiny that they can escape from just about anything. I have no idea, for example, as to how leaky the Hindenburg might have been — the hydrogen used to inflate the blimp was the reason for the explosion in NJ.
