Cutting DoD?s fuel addiction: The new plan
By TIM KAUFFMAN
March 03, 2008

Imagine: Air Force bombers and tankers up to 10 times more fuel efficient
than the heavy aircraft used today. Soldiers who generate energy from their
own motion instead of energy-sucking batteries to charge electronic field
gear. Buildings and facilities throughout the world operating entirely on
renewable energy.

This is the bold vision laid out in a new report by the Defense Science
Board that aims to wean the Pentagon off its insatiable appetite for fossil
fuels and unreliable electricity sources.
