or synthetic fuels can help, but only up to a point. Without extreme reductions in aviation demand, the demand for sustainable aviation fuels in all scenarios would be more than double the total global production of biofuels in 2019. Doubling the production of biofuels would require the world to set aside as much as 3 million square kilometres of land for crops – equivalent to one-third the size of the US.
The aviation industry has an ambitious target of improving aircraft energy efficiency by 2 per cent or more per year, which alone could offset more than half of future growth in demand for air travel, says Davis. “The cost reduction of zero-emission aviation requires new technologies with greatly improved efficiencies both in fuel production and in aircraft propulsion,” says, a former program director for the US Advanced Research Projects Agency-Energy.
Meanwhile, companies making conscious business travel decisions could encourage the industry to move toward net-zero aviation. “I see real opportunities for corporate action that prefers more efficient aircraft, low-contrail flights and especially increased demand for sustainable aviation fuels,” says Davis.
carbon offsets=fake solutions proven even by very left leaning john oliver.
Ofcourse....more money more money more money...I wonder how much of a footprint is left behind to make money? Do you think they would say stop making it if it did?
Ok . We give 5 quad trillion trees
Tell it to Bill Gates & John 'The Filth' Kerry and all their Lear-Jet -Liberal climate conference attendees. Leave the rest of us alone.
Or just scrap net zero. Fixed it for you.
yes, more carbon-scamset
