Think Progress Names NewsBusters Editors 'Climate Denial Jokers' | NewsBusters.org
I'm sure I speak for all my fellow jokers when I say that I am honored to be mentioned with these highly-respected climate realists.

Honda's striking, amazing hydrogen fuel-cell vehicle may be the most expensive, advanced and impractical car ever built.
...
But first, let's get this out of the way: Hydrogen fuel-cell technology won't work in cars. It's a tragic cul-de-sac in the search for sustainable mobility, being used to game the California Air Resources Board's rules requiring carmakers to build zero-emission vehicles. Any way you look at it, hydrogen is a lousy way to move cars.

Face it: Fuel-cell technology has been eclipsed by vastly cheaper, here-now advances in batteries and plug-in electric vehicles. To knit together even the barest network of H2 refueling stations would cost billions. And, in any case, the fuel itself, whether produced by cracking natural gas or hydrolyzing water (consult your freshman chemistry texts), represents a horrible energy return on investment.
