Climate Change – Aviation accounts for 2.4% of emissions. Could a different type of fuel help? (David Simon Lee, WEF)

  • A new study has shown that alternative fuels to the kerosene that aeroplanes often burn could help reduce the impact of aviation on global warming.
  • The study found that sustainable fuel can lower aviation’s CO₂ output and also its production of contrail cirrus clouds.
  • There are obstacles to overcome, such as the potentially high financial cost of developing and distributing biofuels and synthetic fuels.
