I'll publish soon, possibly tonight. Please feel free to check my numbers -- I would love to be wrong by at least three orders of magnitude!
"No. Aviation fuel from waste; hydrogen as aviation fuel; battery powered airliners; these are all conscious, deliberate, intentional, damnable lies. But they are a special kind of lies. They are in fact, two distinct special kinds of lies. In the first place, they are lies which are true at the margins."

The Fool on the HillLies, damned lies, and aviation fuelAnd they're not lying. It can. How much of it?
"So, yes, if we want to fly, say, half a dozen long distance flights a day, worldwide, we can certainly do that on aviation fuel made from waste. We can make some aviation fuel from waste. We can make some aviation fuel literally from shit. It isn't impossible."
