Now It is also my understanding that Hydrogen fuel cells have water as a by product. Is this because of a complex HHO conversion or are we literally producing water? If we are producing water and this technology flourishes, then I see a problem. Supplying extra water to the Earth. Which could lead to global warming, elevated sea levels and increased humidity.

Ami I completely wrong in thinking this way, or what?
I wouldn't worry about the water in terms of Global Warming because it's not a "greenhouse gas".

The local "microclimate", however is another matter. I do have this running "what if" joke. What if all the cars in Los Angeles were suddenly fuel cell vehicles? My guess is that the humidity would shoot up and maybe we'd have lot's of "June Gloom" foggy dayzzzz, ala San Francisco.

Mayyyyyybeeeeee all the rain in BladeRunner is just a byproduct of fuel cells!!!!!! :



See all that white smoke!?!?!?!? I say that's steam!!!!!!!!!!!!!
