Reactions | How Do Hydrogen Fuel Cells Work? @ACSReactions | Uploaded 2 years ago | Updated 1 hour ago
Hydrogen fuel cell cars seem great: hydrogen and oxygen in, nothing but water out. But if that hydrogen comes from dirty, carbon-emission spewing power plants, your sustainable car might not be so green after all. #fuelcell #electriccars #emissions
