Why HYDROGEN for home heating is a REALLY DUMB idea.

This channel seeks to understand the issues that face our civilisation in the 21st Century and focusses on the potential solutions that will save as many lives as possible and hopefully bring about a greater level of equality in the world. The channel is not a debating forum about whether Human Induced Climate Change is a real phenomenon or not. If that's what you're after then I can highly recommend chat forums on Social Media, where people on both sides of the argument go round and round in circles achieving precisely nothing at all. That is a mug's game. And it's not my game. Anyway, outside of those caveats, I do try to keep it light and humorous wherever possible, so I hope you enjoy the content. Oh..and me... Dave Borlace.

Video Description
Hydrogen is an extremely useful element here on earth. We use it for all sorts of essential chemical processes. But we don't tend to burn it as a fuel, because it's already made from a fuel - methane, in a process that releases more carbon dioxide than simply burning the methane itself. Canadian petrochemical expert Paul Martin recently co-wrote a peer-reviewed paper examining why filling existing gas pipelines with hydrogen is a very bad idea indeed, and this week we talk to him about his findings.
