Why do hydrogen gas clouds glow red?

A: Remnants of ancient supernova explosions, they've cooled from white hot to reddish over the course of millions of years. B: Their light is highly red-shifted because of the high speeds with which the gas clouds are moving. C: They're members of the Cool Cosmic Clouds Party (CCCP). D: Decay of trace radioactive elements within them heats the clouds until they glow red. E: Electromagnetic radiation from nearby stars heats the clouds until they glow red.
