The companies are committing to decarbonise some air travel by powering aircraft flying out of LA International Airport with bio-based sustainable aviation fuel made at a nearby World Energy plant

The jets that deliver delegates to the annual UN climate summit are a major source of greenhouse gas emissions — and an embarrassment for conference-goers seeking to shrink the world’s carbon footprint.

Under a memorandum of understanding to be signed at the UN climate summit on Thursday, the two companies are committing to effectively decarbonise some air travel by powering aircraft flying out of Los Angeles International Airport with bio-based sustainable aviation fuel made at a nearby World Energy plant.

Fuel on other Etihad flights — like a regular route from the Washington, DC-area Dulles International Airport to Dubai — will still be petroleum-based because transporting the greener alternative from California to supply the aircraft would boost its overall life cycle emissions and eviscerate some of the environmental benefits.
