Where's the Hydrogen?

I'll tell you how to get enough hydrogen to run the world for millenia. There are certain, very large areas of the world, typically volcanic, which have a massive heat gradient. One such is Kamchatka, on the Eastern border of Siberia. Here are talking well in excess of 150 C within tens of metres of the surface. There are plenty of similar sites around the world. With enough plumbing, heat exchangers and electrical generators hydrogen could be fizzing out of seawater by the barrel load. Catalysts performance has been improving very rapidly and hydrogen is no more problem to transport than oil. It is far less polluting and actually quite difficult ot ignite, contrary to popular opinion. When it does blow, the fireball tends to go up and out of the way, unlike gasoline or LPG which spreads far and wide at ground level.
The time is right, lets go.
