We've talked a lot about hydrogen here and what methods there are to produce it in a climate-neutral way. But why do we need to produce hydrogen at all when it occurs naturally and we could extract it directly from the ground? Yes, there is actually so-called white, natural hydrogen. There are even studies that say that there is so much natural hydrogen underground that it could supply us with energy for several thousand years. You can find out how natural hydrogen is created, why we haven't been extracting natural hydrogen on a large scale for a long time, and how we can use it in the future in this video!
