Although we rarely give much thought to Hydrogen, it is really
quite an amazing and important element. In fact, without its special qualities
there would be no life on this planet. Examples include:
- Every water molecule on Earth contains two atoms of Hydrogen
- Plants use sunlight and the Hydrogen in water to produce
the Oxygen we breath
- Through the process of fusion, Hydrogen causes the sun
to shine
- 9% of your body is made up of Hydrogen
- Hydrogen is a very efficient fuel source which,
when used in internal combustion engines, produces extremely low amounts
of pollutants
- Hydrogen, when used in a fuel cell car, produces clean
water as a by-product and causes no pollution
- Hydrogen is infinitely recyclable, being derived from water
and, when used as an energy source, is converted back into water.
