+<br>Their hope is that adopting renewable fuel to curb emissions might make business jets more appealing to environmentally conscious purchasers - specifically corporations facing concerns over sustainability from shareholders or green project groups.<br>
+<br>The accessibility of less polluting personal jets might also spare the abundant and well-known the negative promotion experienced by Britain's Prince Harry and his spouse Meghan over a current private jet trip to southern France.<br>
+<br>Five Gulfstream jets on [display screen](https://www.nasdaq.com/market-activity/ipos/overview?dealId=804419-65608) in Las Vegas are utilizing California-produced fuel from inedible beef tallow.<br>
+<br>The most [current waste-based](https://www.businessnews.com.au/Company/Mission-NewEnergy) fuels include "fats, grease and oils that are byproducts of the food industry," said Bryan Sherbacow, chief commercial officer of Boston-based [biofuel](https://stocktwits.com/symbol/MNEL) manufacturer World Energy, which produces fuel from meat waste utilized by Gulfstream.<br>

+<br>FLIGHT SHAMING<br>
+<br>Private jets account for less than 0.1% of overall yearly carbon emissions globally, however can release, typically, up to 20 times more carbon emissions per traveler mile than jetliners, according to the London-based personal charter firm Victor.<br>
