Green Aviation Fuels

Via U.S. Department of Energy Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy:

Aviation fuels are going green. At the recent#Biomass2014 conference, Energy Department Assistant Secretary David Danielson announced we are joining the U.S. Department of AgricultureFederal Aviation Administration, and airline industry in “Farm to Fly 2.0,” an initiative to develop a jet biofuel that requires no jet engine modifications. The #US airline industry uses 23 billion gallons of fuels annually, and the international airline industry was responsible for 777 million tons of carbon emissions in 2013. Switching to#biofuels for aviation transportation will increase our#energy independence and protect our environment.
