In the near term, it’s pretty clear that zero-emission, light-duty vehicles will need to rely on batteries. So why are Toyota and Honda (and Hyundai and others) still so bullish on hydrogen?

To some degree, it’s like they wanted to invest in an image of being climate-conscious and technologically innovative while eschewing electric vehicles — the most common vision of a low-emissions transportation future.

Why is this article so agressively angled?

While it's clear the infrastructure isn't there right now, isn't hydrogen in the long term a clearly better alternative than ev's? The biggest problem with EV's being the battery, with all the horrible chemicals that go in to making them.

Shouldn't hydrogen, in the long term, be the obviously greener alternative, or am I missing something?

To be fair, EV's had that same obstacle, and have pretty much overcome it.

We really need a more nuanced discussion around EV's.
I see a lot of "gas bad ev good". While gas IS bad, really bad, we also need to allow into the discussion all the ways ev's are also bad, not just range, but environmentally.

Hydrogen is really interesting to me

All the more reason to get more people to use it.

11: It's the only browser on the market that is not either apple webkit or google chrome based. And it's in our best interest to keep said market healthy, with as many competing actors as possible.

What does this have to do with a sultan?

read up carefully. It is a strategy that can lose you more than you put in.

to be fair, the main problem with avatar being a retelling of pocahontas isn't the stealing aspect, but the fact they brought nothing to the table. It just felt stale.
