Despite the worldwide mobilisation towards the adoption of renewable energy, the Brazilian government continues to promote the use of coal, the most polluting fossil fuel. Who will want to invest if in 2027 the transfer [of subsidies] will not continue?”. This technology is the way out.”. Going against the grain.

Burning gas and other fossil fuels in homes and businesses is one of the top 5 sources of climate pollution in the U.S. Readily available technologies like electric heat pumps and induction stoves are better for our health and the climate, far more efficient than their gas predecessors, and increasingly cost-effective.

The revolutions in power generation and vehicle technology are gaining momentum, and—given the climate crisis—they can’t come too soon.

While industry tried to paint hydrogen combustion engines as a “bridge” technology to hydrogen fuel cells, their own presentations undermined that very point—instead, this path is a clear dead end. We need to make sure regulators like EPA and CARB restrict its usage before it gains a fossil-fueled foothold in the marketplace.
