We’ve now been covering potential climate solutions on the show for about two years and yet, we must confess, hadn’t thought much about green hydrogen until President Biden brought it up at the climate summit last week.

Fakrhy says that in order for this to happen, we’ll have to start producing hydrogen a whole other way.
