electric planes
About 3% of global carbon emission comes from aviation. Experts predict that in 2050 it will increase to more than 10%. People try to reduce pollution in every way they can. This is where the idea for electric airplanes came from. Two-seater ,,Velis Electros" is already flying around Europe. It's a short-distance plane but still it is a breakthrough in aviation technology. The bigest problem is the batteries. Their size and weight. If you want to fully electrify boing 737 (classic passenger plane) with today's batteries there wouldn't be space for passengers and there would be energy for just an hour of flight. But scientist are working on more efficient batteries. Every catastrophe (in this case climate change) can make us discover new solution or we can start to thing in completely different way source: https://theconversation.com/electric-planes-are-coming-short-hop-regional-flights-could-be-running-on-batteries-in-a-few-years-190098
