Climate Confident Reducing Climate Emissions In The Aviation Sector Using Plants - A Chat With Yield10 Bioscience's Olly Peoples
The aviation industry is one the hardest to decarbonise. One way to get its climate emissions down in the short term is to use sustainable aviation fuels (SAF).
One company in this space has come up with a plant that can not only produce oil that can be used to create SAF, but it can do so in a way that is economically advantageous for the farmer, without taking land from food production.
We had a fascinating conversation covering how camelina can be used to create sustainable aviation fuel, as another source of Omega3, and to produce bioplastics.
This was a truly fascinating episode of the podcast and I learned loads as always, and I hope you do too.
