![]() i haven't looked into it since 2001 when I was in 1st year engineering, but I know NYC was looking into hydrogen powered buses a few years back (2001) i wonder what they made of it...they were striving to have the cleanest buses running..

Without it, our air would be fouled each year by: * 22 million pounds of hydrocarbons (causes coughing and chest pains) * 1.18 million pounds of soot and particulate matter (damages human lung tissue) * 15 million pounds of nitrogen oxide (causes acid rain and breathing disorders and leads to ozone damage) * 376 million pounds of carbon monoxide (limits the blood's ability to transport oxygen to body tissue, resulting in headaches, impaired coordination, and death) |
