So your guys' argument is

STICK WITH COAL
because HYDROGEN IS JUST AS POLLUTING AS PETROL
because the engines are not clean
unless you have O2 tanks
and the Electrolysis to turn 2H2O -> 2H2 + O2
would need even more Coal to run at night
to employ fuel tank fillers night shift
and Solar will increase pollution anyway because of night time varying
load inefficiencies.

RIIIIIGHT!
