Hydrogen In Halo
Hydrogen is a gas used to fuel some UNSC vehicles, such as the Warthog and Mongoose. There are also some Hydrogen barrels in Halo 2 and Halo 3. As fossil fuels have probably been abandoned, hydrogen is most likely humanity's current top power source: A UNSC Reactor use hydrogen instead of nuclear power to power buildings and heavy vehicles.
