United Airlines invests in carbon-capture project to be 100% green by 2050

Tracy Rucinski of Reuters reports that United Airlines is investing in a carbon capture project in order to be 100% “green” by 2050.

The C3 Take
  • United Airlines’ carbon capture project is expected to sequester 1 million tons of Co2 per year—the equivalent of what 40 million trees can sequester.
  • Additionally, United is investing in sustainable jet fuel that emits up to 80% less Co2 than traditional fuel.

“United Airlines said on Thursday it had committed to a multimillion-dollar investment in a project to remove carbon dioxide from the air through air direct-capture technology as part of a plan to be 100% ‘green’ by 2050.”
