Aviation accounts for nearly 10% of greenhouse gas emissions from the transportation sector in the United States. With emissions from aircrafts on the rise, federal and state governments are urgently seeking ways to reduce aviation industry emissions through low-carbon fuel pathways that can benefit communities, mitigate climate impacts, and drive business development. But what is sustainable aviation fuel and the possibilities (and perils) it can present?
Minnesota is at an inflection point. The choices made now about our state’s approach to sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) will have an impact for decades to come.
Fresh Energy, The Nature Conservancy, and Friends of the Mississippi River partnered to present a webinar for anyone interested in learning more about the possibilities and perils of SAF, especially those working within state agencies, agriculture, economic development, advocacy, and academia.
During the discussion, we unpacked what SAF is and how it fits into decarbonizing emissions from aviation, discussed the Minnesota Sustainable Aviation Fuels Guiding Principles created by partner organizations Fresh Energy, Friends of the Mississippi River, and The Nature Conservancy, and explained what could be next for SAF in Minnesota and beyond.
