Hi Peggy, I was not referring to 'hydrogen' when I mention 'Hydro'. I was referring to hydro-electric dams. Including them in the mix to boost one's 'friendly' renewable portfolio is disingenuous. It would be similar to the utility companies saying that nuclear power is environmentally friendly because it does not emit greenhouse gasses.
