At present, around 99 percent of the roughly 130 million tons of hydrogen a year used for industrial processes — mostly oil refining and ammonia production — is made using coal or lignite gasification processes, or steam methane reformation. Neither option is cheap, though. But it’s a vision that is still some way off.

Hydrogen derived from natural gas has been widely criticized as an ineffective greenwash that leaks planet-warming methane into the atmosphere. The hydrogen export proposal comes with considerable logistical and technical challenges. Whether there is sufficient consumer demand to merit such infrastructure remains to be seen.

Today, cow manure is a major climate and logistical problem on farms. Piles of decomposing cow manure emit methane and nitrous oxide, in addition to polluting water and contaminating soil. While some manure can serve as fertilizer, large farms still have an excess, and even have to pay to manage their extraneous manure.
