My issue is that when we start using water as fuel, like splitting them and "burning" its components, we might change this constant amount of water, and God knows what kind of environmental problem this will bring!
Similar to today's problem where we have accumulated larger than normal amounts of CO2 in the environment causing global warming, an environmental dilemma might also ensue if the constant amount water becomes less than normal. I dont know what will happen yet, but like in the case of global warming, the long term effects of "burning" water will be felt after much of the water has been used up and the effects will be hard to reverse.
