That is false misinformation. Repeating this falsehood again and again is just propaganda.

The fossil fuel industry is greenwashing "Blue Hydrogen" (hydrogen produced using fossil fuel). The fossil fuel industry certainly does not promote "Green Hydrogen" (hydrogen produced by clean/renewable energy). Conflating the two very different things is a distortion.

More important is that both Germany and France are making big commitments to renewable energy to reduce fossil fuel use.
