Because of the war in Ukraine, many international flights of various airlines are currently affected by the closed airspaces. Moreover, some of them also need to reduce the number of passengers because they are now required to carry extra fuel and food, further increasing the fuel consumed per passenger. The calculations made use of two ratios, each involving the two routes: the total fuel consumed (70/50 = 1.4), and the maximum passengers (330/50 = 6.6).

This brief analysis examines the relative cost of the energy from milk and gasoline. The unifying approach involves the use of a common measure of energy—British thermal units (Btu). A cup of whole milk contains 150 Calories of energy. Thus, there are 2,400 Calories in a gallon of milk. This translates to 9,518 Btu per gallon of milk. The average price of conventional (not organic) whole milk in September 2020 was $3.56
