The aviation sector remains one of the fastest-growing sources of global emissions.

In a quest to decarbonise, the airlines are pushing for the green light on sustailbale fuels.

While hydrogen and electric aeroplanes seem the perfect solution they are not yet feasible.

For now, 65% reductions in emission has to be achieved by replacing the kerosene with sustainable fuels.

Sustainable fuels are currently priced two to five times higher than their non-eco counterparts. This barrs it from being an economic resource.

However, multiple governmental policies and a strong push from biofuel companies might soon impel the reduction in sustainable fuel cost.

At Glasgow’s COP-26 climate event, aero heavyweights pledged to achieve net-zero by 2050.

In July 2021, the European Union agreed to scale up the use of sustainable fuels to 63% in 2050. Additionally, Britain set its target for 10% by 2030.

Other companies are keen to be part of the solution. They are setting net-zero commitments to reduce their carbon footprint by .
