New Alternative-Fuel SUV Will Deplete World’s Hydrogen By 2070

DETROIT - Ford announced a Sept. 3 rollout date for its new Ford Foresight, a hydrogen-powered SUV that, if it reaches sales projections, will deplete the earth’s supply of hydrogen by 2070. “America has asked for a car that does not use fossil fuels, and we’ve delivered,” Ford CEO William Ford Jr. said Monday. "With an engine nearly 20 times as powerful as that of our gas-burning SUV, the 11-ton Foresight will be unaffected by the price-gouging whims of OPEC, as it uses water electrolysis to gather fuel from the oceans and the fresh mountain air." Ford acknowledged that, when hydrogen supplies are depleted, the usefulness of the Foresight, as well as life on earth as we know it, will end.

Thinning of the herd

Lovely! :stuck_out_tongue:

Can’t we use the energy yield from the fusion of hydrogen instead? (That is of course assuming that fusion is implemented in the coming years.)

I don’t think fusion reactions will “deplete” world’s hydrogen supply. For one of it’s products is a hydrogen isotope.

well I am glad that I wont have to pay so much for gas…We will just all die instead…sounds fine

I rather they figure out how to use the gas inside my body. I could power a bus.

2070? We’ll all be dead by then anyway – or close to it at least.

Lets stop using fossil fuels and start using hydrogen so our non-existant grandchildren can enjoy the planet just like we do!

I really think Ford is missing the point of giving fossil fuels here.

I say lets use the methane we create from our flatulence. Clean office space at last!!! :smirk:
