From Ars Technica:
Using photosynthesis to power hydrogen production

Researchers have found that if they insert platinum nanoclusters into
the photosynthetic machinery of bacteria, one acre could produce an
amount of hydrogen equivalent to 79 gallons of gas per day.

At the end they whine about having to handle pure hydrogen!

Dummies, if you have pure molecular hydrogen you can take ANY
carbonaceous waste and turn it into a high quality liquid fuel.
Hydrotreating dehydrated, pyrolyzed garbage, forestry waste, Wall Street
CDOs, or even CDO traders would be nearly ideal. You can then burn the
resulting fuel in current generation automobiles at no added
infrastructure cost.

Some people have no imagination.
