+<br>LAS VEGAS, Oct 22 (Reuters) - At the world's greatest market program in Las Vegas luxury jets are enticing purchasers with their sleek shapes, plush cabins - and progressively, their use of alternative fuels.<br>
+<br>Fuel producers and [jetmakers](https://www.marketscreener.com/quote/stock/MISSION-NEWENERGY-LIMITED-178469/company/) are eager to showcase unique kinds of aviation fuel deemed less harmful to the environment, from [utilized cooking](https://www.intelligentinvestor.com.au/shares/asx-mbt/mission-newenergy-limited/share-price) oil to the noticeably less attractive meat waste.<br>
+<br>[Business jet](https://biodieselmagazine.com/articles/felda-global-buys-missions-kuantan-port-plant-for-11-5-million-9053) operators, like airline companies, have actually acquiesced environmental pressure on [air travel](https://www.marketscreener.com/quote/stock/MISSION-NEWENERGY-LIMITED-178469/company/) and committed to halving carbon [emissions](https://www.zonebourse.com/cours/action/MISSION-NEWENERGY-LIMITED-8557641/) by 2050 [compared](https://www.zonebourse.com/cours/action/MISSION-NEWENERGY-LIMITED-8557641/) to 2005.<br>
+<br>Their hope is that adopting renewable fuel to curb emissions might make business jets more appealing to environmentally mindful buyers - specifically corporations dealing with questions over sustainability from [investors](https://www.zonebourse.com/cours/action/MISSION-NEWENERGY-LIMITED-8557641/) or green project groups.<br>
+<br>The availability of less contaminating private jets could also spare the rich and well-known the negative publicity experienced by Britain's Prince Harry and his spouse Meghan over a recent personal jet journey to southern France.<br>
+<br>Five Gulfstream jets on [display screen](https://www.abnnewswire.net/companies/en/31347/%E0%B8%9A%E0%B8%A3%E0%B8%B4%E0%B8%A9%E0%B8%B1%E0%B8%97-Mission-NewEnergy-%E0%B8%88%E0%B8%B3%E0%B8%81%E0%B8%B1%E0%B8%94.html/4) in Las Vegas are utilizing California-produced fuel from inedible beef tallow.<br>
+<br>The most current waste-based fuels include "fats, grease and oils that are by-products of the food market," said Bryan Sherbacow, chief industrial officer of Boston-based [biofuel](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1463471/000165495419013063/R31.htm) producer World Energy, which produces fuel from meat waste used by Gulfstream.<br>
+<br>"All of our item is inedible."<br>
+<br>A few of the other 79 aircraft on screen are anticipated to be powered by 150,000 gallons of other eco-friendly fuel blends anticipated to be pumped at the show.<br>
+<br>FLIGHT SHAMING<br>
+<br>Private jets account for less than 0.1% of overall [yearly carbon](https://www.zonebourse.com/cours/action/MISSION-NEWENERGY-LIMITED-8557641/)  worldwide, however can release, on average, approximately 20 times more carbon emissions per passenger mile than jetliners, according to the London-based private charter firm Victor.<br>
+<br>Prince Harry has [safeguarded](https://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/companies/news/159352/mission-newenergy-debt-free-focused-on-biofuel-joint-venture-60797.html) his periodic usage of private jets to guarantee his household's safety, and has said that on the [uncommon occasions](https://www.google.com/search?kgmid=/m/0cqd_rb) he does not fly commercially he offsets his emissions.<br>
+<br>But planemakers state [incidents](https://pitchbook.com/profiles/company/51278-86) such as the furore over his travel plan have added fresh difficulties for a market already making every effort to validate its contribution to cutting corporate expenses.<br>
+<br>"Incidents of flight shaming involving the usage of private jets are unfortunate when you consider that our market has delivered fuel effectiveness improvements of 40% over the previous 40 years," stated Bombardier Aviation President David Coleal.<br>
+<br>[Bombardier](https://www.businessnews.com.au/Company/Mission-NewEnergy) believes increased sustainable fuel use will help the market make inroads with corporations and wealthy purchasers. According to market data, billionaires only have a 19% business jet ownership rate.<br>
+<br>But even an image transformation - with jets sporting sticker labels like "this airplane flies on sustainable fuels" and organisers including alternative fuel pumps for going to airplanes - is not likely to satisfy all [critics](https://www.zonebourse.com/cours/action/MISSION-NEWENERGY-LIMITED-8557641/) at the Oct 22-24 [luxury jet](https://www.intelligentinvestor.com.au/shares/asx-mbt/mission-newenergy-limited/share-price) occasion.<br>
+<br>Environmentalists and some experts stay [skeptical](https://www.businessnews.com.au/Company/Mission-NewEnergy) that biojetfuels, normally mixed 50-50 with kerosene, will make a substantial impact on public perceptions about luxury travel.<br>
+<br>"No amount of [Jatropha](https://www.zonebourse.com/cours/action/MISSION-NEWENERGY-LIMITED-8557641/) or Brazil-nut fuel can make organization jets look eco-friendly," stated aviation expert Richard [Aboulafia](https://biodieselmagazine.com/articles/felda-global-buys-missions-kuantan-port-plant-for-11-5-million-9053).<br>
+<br>Demand from organization jet operators for eco-friendly fuels now far exceeds supply and their interest could drive future production, Sherbacow said.<br>
+<br>World Energy, which produces 40 million gallons of [biofuel](https://www.energy-xprt.com/companies/mission-newenergy-limited-36048) at its California plant, could expand production up to 150 million gallons by 2022.<br>
+<br>Corporate charter companies and [consultants](https://www.nasdaq.com/market-activity/ipos/overview?dealId=804419-65608) are likewise seeing more interest from consumers who want to purchase carbon credits to offset emissions from their flights.<br>
+<br>Brian Proctor, CEO of Mente Group, a U.S. consultancy, said emissions played a role in a business jet utilization research study his business recently finished for a Fortune 500 company.<br>
+<br>"At the end of the day, I think that rate, expense per hour, variety, speed and performance, that's still the (sales) driver. But I believe individuals are becoming more conscious of the sustainability of operations and how it impacts the planet." (Reporting By Allison Lampert, Editing by Tim Hepher and Alexandra Hudson)<br>
