From the NYTimes: http://travel.nytimes.com/2008/05/04/travel/04green.html?th&emc=th Trying to Lighten That Carbon Footprint By JENNIFER CONLIN Published: May 4, 2008 IN February, on a chilly, clear Sunday morning, Sir Richard Branson, president of Virgin Atlantic, along with the co-sponsors Boeing and GE Aviation, lured more than 200 journalists to a hangar at Heathrow Airport near London to witness what they said was airline history.
