Save the world by driving a BMW 7 series

David Pogue has an excellent write up of BMW's new hydrogen 7 series and hydrogen as an alternative to fossil fuels. What makes hydrogen such an attractive energy storage devices is that it could easily be created from clean energy such as wind or solar, it can be created at fueling stations where it is needed eliminating the need to distribute it, it can be used in liquid form to power a modified traditional internal combustion engine or used in a fuel cell to power an electric motor.

I agree with David Pogue and applaud BMW's decision to leap frog the semi-clean alternative fuels and push what I believe will end up being the worlds most dominate clean energy storage device, until something better comes along.
