Some great #CleanEnergy policies here that we desperately need
But woefully inadequate 1 line mention of #aviation - the most polluting form of transport
#SAF WON'T fix the issue
No UK SAF plants yet despite 5 being promised by 2025
SAF uptake is ~2% in the UK & >1% globally
#WeNeedToFlyLess
Since start of 2025 there's been a UK 2% mandate of #SAF for fuel suppliers
How much #SAF was supplied in first 6 months?
Just 1.29%
5,814 MILLION litres of fossil fuel kerosene
and 17 million litres of #SAF
#SAF isn't the answer
#greenwash

Like #SAF (so called 'sustainable' aviation fuel)
#DAC or #CCS or #CCUS all are just myths which allow companies - and in particular airlines - to carry on polluting
It's much more cost-efficient in the long term to limit pollution now - not hope to clear it up later

1st quarter 2025 #nightflights shows #BristolAirport are STILL abusing #dispensations
Dispensations are for #emergencies - not for excusing 25% more night flights
Scheduled night flights = 150
ACTUAL night flights = 289
Dispensations = 75

Really interesting thread on airplane #contrails which have a significant effect on global warming and how their effect can be reduced
Of course, in addition, their effect can be reduced most effectively by just not taking so many flights...
