I am not as bothered by the CO2 released by creating hydrogen from biofuels as I am from sources such as coal or oil, because the carbon in those sources was sequestered for millions of years. The carbon from the plants in this process will be recycled continuously, and would not add to the net CO2 levels. I especially like the possibility of using waste pulp, etc, for the raw material. That material eventually decays anyway releasing the same amount of CO2 and hydrogen. We may as well capture the hydrogen and use it as a non-polluting fuel. We would really be using captured solar energy, with the plants being the solar collectors.
