Those guys at Treehugger.com, what a bunch of great guys! They love a joke, don’t they?
“In spite of all the bad news about first-generation biofuels, it’s still a thrill to hear that Virgin Atlantic announced yesterday a 747 flown on a mixture of about 20 percent biofuel and the rest kerosene will lift off for a test flight in February, many months earlier than planned.
Anyone would think they are really supporting flying - good thing it’s just some crazy April Fools joke. What? It’s not a joke?! My source tells me that they really did write an article that said it was “a thrill†to hear about a 20% biofuel plane.
