Many of the 'eco-friendly' models that do NOT use fossil fuels directly (ie., electric cars, etc) merely TRANSFER pollution from one source (car's engine) to electrical generation plant due to gross inefficiencies in how they generate power.

That's true, but it won't always be like that. Eventually, the hydrogen and electricity being used in these cars will be produced from renewable energy sources like wind power.
It's not really going on in any significance anywhere just yet, but these guys may as well work on the technology in the meantime.
That idea on that water powered car website about the new technique for breaking down water sure does seem interesting..
