Hydrogen Energy

I think hydrogen energy is the most effective and overall best alternative energy source. Although not cheap, it's very difficult to find an alternative form of energy with a better cost-to benefit ratio. It's environmentally friendly, producing negligible emissions. It's also very abundant, and the processes for harnessing its pure from are relatively simple and fast when compared to some of the chemical and mechanical processes that accompany other forms of energy, like solar and wind. All sources of energy are a compromise - its our job to weigh the potential detriments against the benefits and decide which are worth dealing with their disadvantages. To me, hydrogen energy fits that criteria the best.
