Green jet fuel is here – so why are airlines not using it?

- jfengel 5y agoThe taxes aren't anywhere near close enough to make up the difference. You'd need to impose a hefty extra tax to level the playing field. Which might well be a good idea. But it would be enough to significantly alter the economics of transportation.
