How long and expensive (and in a much simpler time) did it take to create a gasoline and diesel delivery system to the ordinary person? And would fresh water be the major feed stock?? People already whine about converting corn to fuel, in another 30-50 years fresh water will be worth a lot more than #2 yellow corn. I'd rather see ultra efficient gas/NG powered vehicles that can still do the same things they do now using gas or diesel rigs getting 10-20 mpg. The rub is that making such beasts will be costly as well and probably still going up stream against the entrenched big interests. If people want to make their own hydrogen powered cars on their own and figure out how to fuel them go for it. Just like the few who have converted some the diesels to run on used deep fat frying oil but I think scaling up to a national level would be difficult (not enough french fy oil out there). Is Japan really converting over to hydrogen on a national scale? Maybe they're already anticipating when their country has half the population than it does now (they simply aren't reproducing many Japanese anymore and their population is already starting to shrink)??
The first fuel vehicles were not built to run on gasoline but alcohol, Diesel built the first diesel motor to run on veg oil or a reasonable similar product. It wasn't until Mr, Diesel "Accidentally" fell over board while on a trip in the English channel 2 years after his invention that a certain fuel formula was required to run a Diesel motor.
After the hurricane in new york The only guy for miles around that had electricity was an engineer who had built his own Hydroxy Generator. people from miles around came to him for showers and such. I will find the story and try to post it.
P.S. There is plenty of water available. The global warming/Climate change thing is supposed to melt all the ice in the world and raise the sea level 10 ft. ice burgs and glaciers are not salt water they are fresh water.
Have you not heard of HARP by the governments own admission it is successful at moving and changing atmospheric conditions. yet we have a drought in the south west, the bread basket of the U.S. Ever ask your self why ? Which story do you choose to believe, too much water or not enough water.
Ill quit before I get political.
