As of recent estimates, China burns approximately 12 million barrels of oil per day, along with significant amounts of coal and natural gas, making it the largest consumer of fossil fuels globally. Coal alone accounts for about 57% of China's total energy consumption, translating to over 3.8 billion tons of coal burned annually. This extensive reliance on fossil fuels contributes to both economic growth and environmental challenges, including air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions.

Why will using hydrogen as a fuel lead to reduction in the use of fossil fuels?

Because hydrogen when burnt releases only water as a byproduct. Fossil fuels release pollution in the form of carbon dioxide, a powerful greenhouse gas, causing global warming. So hydrogen is a much better fuel than fossil fuel (coal, oil and natural gas).

Why is bio diesel's contribution to global warming less than that of fossil diesel?

When biodiesel is burnt, the carbon dioxide it releases was removed from the atmosphere several months ago when the plants were grown to make the biodiesel. This is part of the carbon cycle.When fossil fuel diesel is burnt, it releases carbon dioxide that has been hidden underground for 300 million years. This EXTRA carbon dioxide is too much for the carbon cycle to deal with, and is building up in the atmosphere causing global warming.
