	Methane cracking {{p\|Note: the word 'cracking' has nothing to do with physical cracks in any material.}} is a process that converts methane (usually from [[fossil fuels\|natural gas]]) into '''[[hydrogen gas]] and solid carbon'''. The hydrogen can be burned for [[energy]], and the carbon could be buried in the ground or used for something else. The carbon '''does not become [[climate change\|CO2]]''' (unlike normal combustion of methane).
