It’s packed with energy; per unit of weight, at least 60 times as much as the lithium-ion batteries used to propel electric cars. But according to a growing body of research, those efforts leave something out: Most of the planet-warming effects of flying aren’t from carbon dioxide. And again, those schemes are all about carbon.
