A group of exciting start-ups are exploring whether the world's trash mountains could become a valuable source of low carbon hydrogen fuels. One novel spin on emerging hydrogen fuel options is "clean hydrogen" made from trash. Today, more than 95 per cent of hydrogen is fossil-based and does not rely on renewables.

Though the focus is on its zero carbon emissions into the air, it reduces other forms of pollution. Hydrogen fuel cells work using an electrochemical process bringing H2 and oxygen together for an output of electrical energy, water, and a bit of heat. Using hydrogen fuel cells goes a step beyond the reduction of pollution into the air.
