Sustainable Aviation Fuel
- JetBlue -
Why we love this one: JetBlue have made it their mission to demonstrate through action true climate leadership. From offsetting over 907,000 metric tonnes of COâ‚‚ emissions to investing in NextGen technology, JetBlue is an industry leader in addressing climate risk.
​
The airline industry, historically known to only offer 'dirty travel' continues to be one of the greatest contributors to global emissions as the world becomes more connected than ever. Recognising the need for the industry to step up, JetBlue, as part of the global industry, have set out to achieve carbon-neutral growth from 2020 via carbon offsetting and emissions reductions.
​
What makes JetBlue stand out however is how far they've gone to address and invest in emission reduction initiatives. They've invested heavily in proactive, preventative measures that show they deeply care and acknowledge the role they play. Starting in 2020, JetBlue agreed to purchase sustainable, renewable aviation fuel which is produced from 100% waste like food scraps. This fuel produces up to 80% less carbon footprint then standard aviation fuel.
