Top story on DRUDGE right now........
https://phys.org/news/2019-06-pressure-mounts-aviation-industry-climate.html
Airlines pulling their hair out about what to do to reduce emissions to satisfy frequent flyers upset about climate change. I was just thinking.........what about going to solar powered commercial aircraft? Perhaps with a windmill or two on top! Perhaps too, they could start development of a massive slingshot glider so no fossil fuels would be necessary for trans-Atlantic and trans-Pacific flights. Remove beef from flight menu's......at least airlines could feel like they are doing their part, which would be admirable. Or how about some batteries from Tesla......I would think enough of them could fly at least some of the smaller sized current jets!! Go....go!!
