Process it on the moon with He3 processing plant before shipping it back to Earth.

After processing you're still left with tons of gaseous He3 that you might want to transport to Earth, in the example 40 tons of it. To transport it you would liquefy it at nearly zero degrees Kelvin and you would then have to store it into dewar flasks to keep it cold.
Perhaps you would do better to generate the energy on the Moon and send it as radio waves to antennae parks in the Gobi desert and the Sahara being careful not to boil overflying birds.

That will work. As a matter of fact why not turn it the energy into lasers to send it to Earth as a recoverable electricity or boiling water into steam to spin the generators.

Using lasers to boil water on Earth is a particularly inefficient way to transport energy. Better use micro waves to antennae. :)
