Natural gas will play a leading role in reducing greenhouse-gas emissions over the next several decades, largely by replacing older, inefficient coal plants with highly efficient combined-cycle gas generation, according to a major new interim report out from MIT. The first two reports dealt with nuclear power (2003) and coal (2007).

We will create energy without spewing carbon dioxide into the environment if this power is supplied from renewable sources. Furthermore, unlike coal and oil, it is a clean energy source that produces only water vapor and leaves no residue in the air. Hydrogen has a long history of working with industry.
