At the landmark (The Hydrogen Economy Miami Energy) Conference, 18 to 20 March 1974, Miami Beach, Florida, organized and chaired by T. Nejat Veziroglu, the consensus developed that the Hydrogen Energy System offers the optimum solution to the interrelated global problems occasioned by the increasingly rapid depletion of fossil fuel sources, as well as the environmental problems caused by their current usage (global warming, climate change, ozone layer depletion, acid rains, pollution, oil spills, oxygen depletion etc.). Those in attendance at the ?Theme? Conference were inrnagreement that the Hydrogen Economy would protect the planet earth - the only planet known to be hospitable to human life -while delivering clean, abundant energy, leading to a higher standard of living. This seemed a noble and worthwhile idea, and it was decided to establish an organization dedicated to the ultimate establishment of the Hydrogen Energy System. This organization, the International Association for Hydrogen Energy (IAHE), was formed by the end of 1974, with T.N. Veziroglu as the Founding President.
