BIG ISLAND HYDROGEN (Hydrogen Highway)
FUELED BY EVERYTHING Geothermal Solar Wind Biomass Hydro
HOLISTIC APPROACH • Renewable & Sustainable Energy • Replace Transportation Fuels with Hydrogen and Electric Mobility • Make Agriculture Sustainable on a regional level • Carbon Neutral & Carbon Negative Technologies • Use Carbon Harvesting Technologies to sequester carbon into durable goods • Carbon Fiber, Carbon Foam, Carbon Nanotubes, Graphene
Civilization didn’t emerge from the STONE AGE because we ran out of STONES (fossil fuels)
