Name:     
Srikar Kilambi                                                                                
Individual Research title: 
Hydrogen Vs. Electricity - Which is the greener transportation future?
What question do I want to ask?
Looking at all aspects of the hydrogen car and the electric car, which one is a better alternative to using gas in cars in today's world and why?
Where will I find the information to answer my questions?

How will I analyse the information? 

- Find the biases.
- Find the reasons for writing the article, news source, etc.
- Understand the message and how it is directed to a certain audience.
- Try and find contradictions
- Weigh the good and bad things about the information
How will I identify and evaluate possible scenarios?
- Compare it to different pieces of information i have found.
- Find statistics to support my statements
- Find a clear definite argument in the information I have found. 
Possible scenarios
I have not been able to start this area of my essay yet. I will post something as soon as I being work on this area. I hope this is okay!
