No you wouldn't. It will burn alcohol, which can be made easily from
plant material, or synthesised hydrocarbons made by using carbon
dioxide, water and nuclear energy.

If desperate, you could split water using solar energy, and perform the
minor conversion to let the engine run on hydrogen.



It's very difficult to make a piston engine run on hydrogen.


I'll be sure to tell Wrightbus and BMW, among others, of your opinion.
