I imagine that if it does prove necessary to have a carbon-free

windmills to keep the greens happy. But aeroplanes? They'll probably
be fueled with bio-ethanol, although the starving millions in the
world might have something to say about good crop-growing land being
devoted to feeding planes rather than people.


If Lockheed Martin are right in their predictions, they could be powered
by high beta fusion reactors.
