To overcome this inadequacy, researchers have developed a color-changing patch that could be worn on soldiers’

With the aviation industry recently announcing self-imposed CO2 reduction targets, the search is on for more environmental friendly fuels for use in passenger aircraft. A number of aircraft manufacturers and airlines have been looking at alternative fuels, such as GTL and biofuel and now Brazil’s largest airline, TAM Airlines, working together with Airbus, has successfully conducted the first Jatropha-based biofuel flight in Latin America.
