transport liquefied hydrogen. but that hydrogen is being made from coal. 100km north of tokyo, huge mountains of coal shipped here mainly from australia. at the moment, japan imports close to 200 million tons of coal a year. japan knows it can t carry on doing this and so instead, it s going to convert the coal to either hydrogen or ammonia in faraway australia, and then ship those here. it s what the industry calls blue hydrogen and blue ammonia . the conversion process still creates lots and lots of carbon dioxide, but that co2 will not count as japanese emissions. instead, in theory, the c02 will be buried in the ground in australia. translation: i am ashamed of japan. i hikari is one of the young activists who filed a lawsuit to try and stop construction of

the only waste the mirai produces is water. but where does the hydrogen to fill its tank come from? last month, this ship left japan and sailed to australia. it s the first ship in the world that can transport liquefied hydrogen. but that hydrogen is being made from coal. 100km north of tokyo, huge mountains of coal shipped here mainly from australia. at the moment, japan imports close to 200 million tons of coal a year. japan knows it can t carry on doing this and so instead, it s going to convert the coal to either hydrogen or ammonia in faraway australia, and then ship those here. it s what the industry calls blue hydrogen and blue ammonia . the conversion process still creates lots and lots of carbon
important in order to achieve our goal of zero emissions. the only waste the vehicle produces is water. but where does the hydrogen to fill its tank come from? last month, this ship left japan and sailed to australia. it s the first ship in the world that can transport liquefied hydrogen. but that hydrogen is being made from coal. 100km north of tokyo, huge mountains of coal shipped here mainly from australia. at the moment, japan imports close to 200 million tons of coal a year. japan knows it can t carry on doing this, so instead, it s going to convert the coal to either hydrogen or ammonia, in faraway australia, and then ship those here. it s what the industry calls
translation: we believe we need more choice than just battery electric vehicles. therefore, fuel cell technology, which uses hydrogen, is also very important in order to achieve our goal of zero emissions. the only waste the mirai produces is water. but where does the hydrogen to fill its tank come from? last month, this ship left japan and sailed to australia. it s the first ship in the world that can transport liquefied hydrogen. but that hydrogen is being made from coal. 100km north of tokyo, huge mountains of coal shipped here mainly from australia. at the moment, japan imports close to 200 million tons of coal a year. japan knows it can t carry on doing this, so instead, it s going to convert the coal to either hydrogen or ammonia in faraway australia,
