1 Million Hydrogen Cars Sold in the US
In recent statistics, the United States has now sold 1 million hydrogen fuled cars. If this rate of sales keeps up, they are estimating a 50% increase in hydrogen fuled cars by 2033. The price of hydrogen cars is about 20% higher than a regular gasoline fuled car. This is keeping the sales of hydrogen cars down for now. The United States is far behind sales when it comes to countries like Iceland. 80% of their cars are now powered by hydrogen and the country is expecting to close all gasoline stations by the year 2040. If the United States would follow Iceland's lead, it would mean a lot to the world's environment.

I think this is great. I think it is up to us the younger people of the world to demand a change and also buy cars that are hybrid or run on hydrogen. We must change things, and right now I drive a small car that gets great gas mileage but it’s old. So the next car I buy I think I will be getting a Honda Hybrid.
