The HydrogenNowCast is devoted to encouraging the deployment of Fuel Cell EV’s, hydrogen fueling and hydrogen infrastructure throughout the world. Our intent is to encourage and motivate others to take charge, to help deploy hydrogen as a means to decarbonize the transportation and energy sectors, and accelerate the movement to stop climate change

Existential threats like Climate Change and the current political situation seem to present challenges so huge, complicated and intractable that they defy our attempts to solve them. Consequently, we can become burned-out and may even disengage entirely.We'll look at the psychological reasons behind this burn out and offer some solutions on how to cope.
