That makes absolutely no difference. How do you eat a whale? One bite at a time. Every time there is a reduction, it's a win. All the millions of times the "it's not a big deal and everybody does it" mentality added up and created this global mess. Now it's time to start using that same mentality to subtract, bit by bit. It won't stop with Scotland.

And I don't know what they meant. They said something stupid about "now we're going to start using plants?"

Battery technology currently is just a bit too heavy for airplanes. There are some electrics flying but their range is good for only short missions. Fuel cell technology is also emerging as a possible alternative in other transport areas such as heavy trucks. Lots of stuff gets more efficient when you don't have to drive pistons up and down.

As to safety, I think all fuel supplies have risk. Gasoline, propane, LI batteries, you name it, it's always a disaster when it goes wrong.
