Hydrogen production

Nuclear reactors use a ceramic fuel that can be operated at temperatures up to 1000 degrees C. At these temperatures, water separates into hydrogen and oxygen. The hydrogen can then be used in fuel cells to power cars.

So, while these reactors would be producing electricity, they could form hydrogen as a byproduct. Then we could have all our power without the greenhouse emissions.
