That sadly doesn't work terribly well (we burn a lot of methane producing fertilizer for the corn) and doesn't scale up to the world.

    I know. That didn't stop them. Just hydrogen trucks, nuclear ships, no private jets and stop using concrete everywhere would make much more impact.

    What's actually working for transport is battery-electric. About half the heavy trucks in China sold in the past few months have been done like that.

    My expectation is that we'll see solar to hydrogen used for decarbonizing the chemicals industry, but not much else, largely because batteries have gotten so cheap and so energy dense.
