It is Syria’s first outbreak of the waterborne pathogen since 2007. Green hydrogen, like the canceled Kallis Energy Investments project in Australia, uses renewable energy to split water into hydrogen and oxygen. Social and political circumstances in Syria may have aided the outbreak. Hydrogen comes in many flavors.
