Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) consumption increased from 6,000 tons in 2016 to 80,000 tons in 2021 globally. But this is still a tiny amount of what would be need for the greening of the aviation industry and most of the initiatives can be found in the West. The panelists in this webinar will discuss environmental policies in China and Asia from the perspectives of airlines, fuel producers and economic policy. The goal is to provide guidance for good policy practice.
