HYDROGEN HAWAII, with Dr. Tom Koppel, author of 'Powering the Future - The Ballard Fuel Cell and the Race to Change the World,' tells a "larger hydrogen economy story," said Scientific American's Fuel Cell Industry Report. Produced and directed by independent filmmaker Richard D. Masters at the request of Hawaii's Energy and Environmental Protection Chair, Representative Mina Morita, HYDROGEN HAWAII examines the rich potential of Hawaii to become free of total oil dependence by tapping the islands' abundance of renewable energy - and create a model for the conversion of "the mainland" to a hydrogen economy. Produced in the year of the terror attacks on the World Trade Center, HYDROGEN HAWAII is a prophetic exploration of America's key national security issue: a dangerous reliance on imported petroleum. The latest developments in hydrogen energy are covered in detail. Fuel cell buses in Canada; political discussions in Washington, D.C., and a bold government initiative to bring fuel cell cars to California. Updated for 2003, the delivery of commercial Japanese fuel cell cars to the City of Los Angeles and the University of California presents a profound new challenge to Detroit and OPEC, and fires the first shot of what is destined to become the greatest technological race of the 21st century. Only six weeks after the release of this updated edition, President George W. Bush announced the United States would develop a hydrogen economy to remove itself from the influence of imported oil. HYDROGEN HAWAII provides a unique perspective to this technology and its urgency.Director Richard D. Masters is also principal of the International Clearinghouse for Hydrogen Based CommerceHYDROGEN HAWAII was a finalist for the 2002 Telly Award in Film & Video.This product is manufactured on demand using DVD-R recordable media.

This DVD is excellent. It shows how hydrogen may be the future for energy, once issues such as safety and distribution, are well resolved.
