"alt": "Joe Romm\n\nSo, there are two things you're trying to do: You're trying to take a diffuse gas right in the atmosphere, 420 parts per million, right? You have to capture that. You took a solid or a liquid that was storing that hydrogen, that carbon very easily, it's got diffused. You're going to spend a lot of energy getting it back in that form. And then of course, you're splitting the water, which is, remember, water is the waste product of combustion, much as carbon dioxide is the waste product of combustion. And we're going to take two waste products and try to convert them back into the original so we can burn them again.\n\nOkay, now if that isn't clear, clearly one of the most inefficient last things you would ever do. And you'd never do it until you had so much excess renewables that you would solve every other problem first.",
