I have nineteen C02 machines in my backyard. They are called trees. Maybe we can go back to wood fired engines.

An utter and laughable green dream on steroids! "To start with, Lufthansa will take at least 25,000L of fuel per year for at least five years." LOL, 25,000L for the conversion challenged is roughly 6600 gallons of fuel. A quote from an a380 info. source says "Its maximum fuel capacity is over 85,000 gallons, or about the same as 5,300 Toyota Camrys. 6600 gallons would be taxi fuel for a couple of a380 trips! https://thepointsguy.com/news/fun-facts-about-the-airbus-a380/

I guess their electricity delivered for the conversion will be 'carbon free', or maybe they can 'hold over a powerplant' for a topoff'? sarc., snark, whatever, the internet is undoubtedly the haven of unfettered BS. cheers
