Fort Collins, Colorado. A new association, comprising leading scientists,
industry leaders and government representatives from all over the
world, to introduce the immediate potential of hydrogen as a primary
fuel, has been formed.
The organization
is called Hydrogen Now!, and is headquartered in Fort Collins, Colorado,
under the direction of Dr. Maurice Albertson of Colorado State University,
professional engineer and co-creator of the Peace Corps.
"Hydrogen
Now! will bring the results of work that has been done on hydrogen
as a fuel source over the past 50 years to the public," said
Dr. Albertson.
"Hydrogen
is the most abundant element in the universe," said Albertson.
"Its use can be renewable, inexhaustible, non-toxic and non-polluting."
Our job is
to begin exploring the ways to implement the technology and to share
that information with the public."
Hydrogen Now!
will proceed cautiously with its program of public information.
"We don't want to give the public the idea that they can start
using hydrogen energy everywhere today," says Albertson. "But
the fact is that we are ready to begin the process of implementation
and the development of an infrastructure that will result in a smooth
transition to the Hydrogen Economy."
The organization
has drawn together the work that has been done and is continuing
to be done by the world's major energy companies, private inventors,
and the scientific community.
"Several
countries, outside the United States, are way ahead of us in terms
of bringing the Hydrogen Economy to the their people," said
Albertson. "Our job at Hydrogen Now! is to bring a new level of
awareness to the public."
Hydrogen Now!
will launch a nationwide program of information on talk radio, newspapers,
magazines, television and via the Internet.
For those who are interested in receiving more information or lending
a hand, they can call our toll-free number 866-GO-H2-NOW or access
