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..

and the stats!

The New York City Transit network helps keep cars off the road. 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)
