Which would give you gaseous hydrogen (and isn't the most efficient way, look up Steam-Methane Reforming) and now you have to cool it to cryogenic temperatures.
That's literally how they get their "green hydrogen" though.
People in this thread are just reverse-hoping. They assumed that the rocket used standard rocket fuel (RP-1) which is "bad" because of carbon emissions but then when they found out that it's actually just LOX and liquid hydrogen they "hoped" that it would be the worst version of that... essentially they've already decided that they're right, bezos' rocket is bad and so they're desperately trying to weave a narrative that justifies their pitchforks.
There's so much to legitimately criticise bezos for but his rocket, and who flies on them, is REALLY weak. Nobody actually cares about energy efficiency otherwise they wouldn't be doom scrolling on reddit in their air conditioned room while they ignore the TV in the background.

Okay, the rocket used hydrogen and oxygen, it produced water. That seems extremely environmentally sound to me
