Why watch it?

As hydrogen spreads through transport, energy and industry, first responders need to know how it behaves when things go wrong. On The Hazmat Files Podcast, hazmat and CBRN response specialist Dr. Christina Baxter of Emergency Response TIPS explains what hydrogen's particular chemical and thermal hazards mean for responder safety. The discussion moves through pre-incident planning, on-scene response priorities and the safety points that matter most, with a practical focus throughout. Plant safety managers writing emergency plans and engineers coordinating with fire services will find it a useful 22-minute briefing.
