COP26 Conference Sees Debut of Pro-SAF User Group
At the UN climate conference this week, an aviation industry users group was formed to promote investment and use of sustainable aviation fuel.
Speaking today at the UN Climate Conference in Glasgow, Scotland, U.S. Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg explained that the transportation sector is the single largest emitter of greenhouse gas emissions in the U.S., and that aviation currently is responsible for 11 percent of that total. He pointed to recent government initiatives such as the SAF Grand Challenge and Congressional approval for the Biden Administration's infrastructure package as steps towards the country's just-announced goal of reaching net-zero aviation by 2050.
