Honda rolls out Fuel Cell Car

Honda's new zero-emission, hydrogen fuel cell car rolled off a Japanese production line today and is headed to southern California. The FCX Clarity, which runs on hydrogen and electricity, emits only water and none of the gases believed to contribute to global warming. It is also two times more energy efficient than a gas-electric hybrid and three times that of a standard gasoline-powered car, the company says. Hydrogen, instead of petroleum, fills its tank. Electricity, instead of internal combustion, moves it forward. Hydrogen fuel-cell cars are rare and new. They are also very expensive to make and there are hardly any hydrogen stations to support them

This type of car is certainly not feasible at the moment, but considering our dependence on oil and the cost of gas this is a technology worth taking note of. If these types of vehicles were mass produced and cheaper to manufacture, it would help the environment and send notice to big oil companies that are making record profits while many people and businesses are struggling to survive the cost of filling their vehicles.
