69 h. ago Harvesting hydrogen from biomass for energy can provide substantial carbon emissions reduction

Hydrogen fuel provides energy without producing carbon dioxide emissions, which makes it a promising option for decarbonizing the economy. The U.S. is a major producer of hydrogen, contributing around 10% of the global annual production, but the quantity of emissions produced when hydrogen is harvested depends on the method.
