Look at ZapMap in London and other cities. I think you'd be surprised at how many charging spots there are.

H2 really isn’t the answer. Partly because physics makes it hard to move & store, partly because thermodynamics makes it really inefficient (round trip efficiency from electricity to hydrogen & back to useful heat or electricity is well below 50%) & partly because there are better cheaper options.

No & yes. Removing CO2 from the ocean doesn't help global warming. BUT there could be an indirect effect, because the ocean might then take up more CO2 from the atmosphere. Lots of money is going into this "mCDR", but it's hard to do, very hard to scale up, & ever harder to prove it actually works.
