Video: Flying high with the US Navy’s Great Green Fleet

Julia Whitty’s cover story for the March/April edition of Mother Jones magazine, My heart-stopping ride aboard the Great Green Fleet, already features on ReneEconomy‘s Best of the Web list, but for the audio-visual experience, below is the accompanying video footage (via Climate Desk) of the journalist making a hair-raising landing on the USS Nimitz aircraft carrier as a passenger aboard a 50-50 biofuel-powered jet. Whitty also goes into detail about the Navy’s green makeover – and its forward-thinking on climate-change – and some of the hurdles America’s ‘Beltway’ has thrown up along the way. Chocks away!
