yeah possibly. I don't know the numbers for that, it's just that some companies see this and go: oh neat the R&D was already done for us together with oh neat we can say it's greener* and add to that some interest groups and we get this.

The vehicle will have a reduced CO2 output tho. if you don't factor in how most of the current H2 is made...

because these kinds of engines already exist, made in the 90s early 00's by BMW as a study, they require 1,5 times the amount of resources to make than regular engines. However when dealing with heavy machinery like this that is less of a concern since they are not made in the same number as regular cars.

That is a moronic take with food you are taking away sovereignty over people's own bodies. That is also why it is hard to ban cigarretes and alcohol. In those cases the substances that are banned are such a net loss for the person and society as a whole that it was banned. Meat however even with all the energy and water it costs is not on the same level of harmful as those other substances.

While we do have to plan policy with future generations in mind, it also needs to be human, forcing people into having kids and veganism stuff will not be a net benefit for society.

The important thing is to have a sustainable society: meeting current needs without endangering the needs of future generations
