From time to time, the human species shows hope of surviving itself. This is one of the many drops in the bucket needed to avoid returning to the stone age.
Japanese car manufacturer Honda has begun the first commercial production of a zero-emission, hydrogen fuel-cell powered vehicle.
The four-seater, called FCX Clarity, runs on hydrogen and electricity, and emits water vapor.
Honda claims the vehicle offers three times better fuel efficiency than a traditional, petrol-powered car.
Honda plans to produce 200 of the cars, which are initially available only to lease, over the next three years.
