Hydrogen Hype

 

This program aired originally on October 7, 2024

Unpredictable and destructive weather events dramatically illustrate how climate chaos is impacting us right now. Yet while there are real solutions that will enable us to stop emitting greenhouse gases, the fossil fuel industry continues to promote a menagerie of false solutions that do not actually address carbon reduction but allow the industry to continue business as usual. One the options that is receiving the most greenwashing is hydrogen, which is being promoted widely as a green energy source.

On this episode of Locus Focus we talk with Melanie Plaut, a retired OBGYN and member of Oregon Physicians for Social Responsibility and 350PDX, about the wide and varied problems of relying on hydrogen as a climate solution.
