The passage suggests hydrogen as an alternative energy source for automobiles in the future. However, the lecturer believes it is too optimistic, based on three reasons.
First of all, it is not easy to get pure liquid hydrogen from water for automobiles currently. The difficulties in producing and storage of liquid hydrogen make it impractical to use it in fuel-cells to power cars. This contradicts with the argument in the passage that hydrogen is easily available from a variety of sources.
Secondly, the professor contradicts the idea from the reading material that utilizing hydrogen can solve pollution problems. Although hydrogen cars do not emit pollutions, factories still generate great pollution when producing hydrogen, for most factories rely on burning of coals or oil as an energy source.
Thirdly, the passage claims that using hydrogen would be much cheaper. However, the lecturer disagrees with that by citing that platinum, a very expensive metal, is required for hydrogen fuel-cell, making it expensive, and displacing it with cheaper metals has been unsuccessful.
All in all, the inavailability of pure liquid hydrogen, the unavoidable pollution and the high price of hydrogen fuel-cell prevent its massive utiilization claimed in the reading passage.
