Ah! I see where you are coming from. I was thinking of hydrogen as a replacement for petrol in an internal combustion engine. Even so, with a closed-system hydrogen fuel cell, the electricity to recharge the fuel cell has to come from somewhere, and that "somewhere" is very likely to be more polluting than the gasoline engines it replaces.
