Richard: 100 percent of the profits that Virgin Group takes from our airlines, we put into investments in clean energy. One of those areas is to try to come up with an alternative fuel for planes and we’ve got three different areas we’re looking at there, one is algae-based, one is isobutanol, and the other one is a fuel that literally comes out of the waste chimneys of steel plants and aluminum plants and we turn that into aviation fuel. And personally I think that the aviation industry will go from being a dirty industry to one of the cleanest industries in the world very rapidly because we’ve only got 1700 petrol pumps to fill around the world to look after all airlines. And I think the breakthrough for clean fuel on airlines is happening quite rapidly.
