LAS VEGAS, Oct 22 (Reuters) - At the world's biggest market program in Las Vegas luxury jets are enticing purchasers with their sleek silhouettes, plush cabins - and significantly, their use of [alternative fuels](https://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/companies/news/159352/mission-newenergy-debt-free-focused-on-biofuel-joint-venture-60797.html).
+
Fuel [manufacturers](https://www.intelligentinvestor.com.au/shares/asx-mbt/mission-newenergy-limited/share-price) and jetmakers are keen to showcase unique types of [aviation fuel](https://forest500.org/rankings/companies/mission-newenergy-limited) deemed less damaging to the climate, from used cooking oil to the definitely less [attractive](https://www.businessnews.com.au/Company/Mission-NewEnergy) meat waste.
+
Business jet operators, like airlines, have bowed to ecological pressure on air travel and dedicated to halving carbon emissions by 2050 compared with 2005.
+
Their hope is that embracing eco-friendly fuel to suppress emissions might make organization jets more [appealing](https://www.nasdaq.com/market-activity/ipos/overview?dealId=804419-65608) to ecologically conscious purchasers - especially corporations facing concerns over sustainability from investors or green project groups.
+
The accessibility of less contaminating personal jets could also spare the abundant and popular the [negative promotion](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1463471/000165495419013063/R31.htm) experienced by Britain's Prince Harry and his other half Meghan over a recent private jet trip to southern France.
+
Five Gulfstream jets on [display](https://www.marketscreener.com/quote/stock/MISSION-NEWENERGY-LIMITED-178469/company/) in Las Vegas are [utilizing California-produced](https://www.marketscreener.com/quote/stock/MISSION-NEWENERGY-LIMITED-178469/company/) fuel from inedible beef tallow.
+
The current waste-based fuels include "fats, grease and oils that are by-products of the food industry," said Bryan Sherbacow, officer of Boston-based [biofuel](https://www.marketscreener.com/quote/stock/MISSION-NEWENERGY-LIMITED-178469/company/) manufacturer World Energy, which produces fuel from meat waste used by Gulfstream.
+
"All of our product is inedible."
+
Some of the other 79 aircraft on display screen are anticipated to be powered by 150,000 gallons of other eco-friendly fuel mixes anticipated to be pumped at the program.
+
FLIGHT SHAMING
+
Private jets represent less than 0.1% of overall yearly carbon emissions worldwide, but can produce, on average, approximately 20 times more carbon emissions per traveler mile than jetliners, according to the London-based private charter firm Victor.
+
Prince Harry has protected his periodic use of [private jets](https://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/companies/news/159352/mission-newenergy-debt-free-focused-on-biofuel-joint-venture-60797.html) to ensure his household's safety, and has said that on the rare celebrations he does not fly commercially he offsets his emissions.
+
But planemakers say events such as the furore over his travel plan have included fresh difficulties for a market currently aiming to justify its contribution to cutting business expenses.
+
"Incidents of flight shaming including making use of personal jets are regrettable when you think about that our industry has actually delivered fuel effectiveness improvements of 40% over the previous 40 years," stated Bombardier Aviation President David Coleal.
+
Bombardier thinks [increased sustainable](https://www.google.com/search?kgmid=/m/0cqd_rb) fuel use will assist the market make inroads with corporations and rich purchasers. According to market data, billionaires just have a 19% service jet ownership rate.
+
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 planes - is not likely to please all critics at the Oct 22-24 high-end jet event.
+
Environmentalists and some [analysts stay](https://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/companies/news/159352/mission-newenergy-debt-free-focused-on-biofuel-joint-venture-60797.html) hesitant that biojetfuels, generally combined 50-50 with kerosene, will make a substantial effect on public perceptions about high-end travel.
+
"No quantity of [jatropha curcas](https://www.investing.com/equities/mission-newenergy-ltd-company-profile) or Brazil-nut fuel can make service jets look eco-friendly," stated air travel expert Richard Aboulafia.
+
Demand from [business jet](https://www.zonebourse.com/cours/action/MISSION-NEWENERGY-LIMITED-8557641/) operators for eco-friendly fuels now far surpasses supply and their interest might drive future production, Sherbacow stated.
+
World Energy, which produces 40 million gallons of [biofuel](https://www.businessnews.com.au/Company/Mission-NewEnergy) at its California plant, could broaden production approximately 150 million [gallons](https://biodieselmagazine.com/articles/felda-global-buys-missions-kuantan-port-plant-for-11-5-million-9053) by 2022.
+
Corporate charter companies and specialists are likewise seeing more interest from customers who want to purchase carbon credits to balance out [emissions](https://forest500.org/rankings/companies/mission-newenergy-limited) from their [flights](https://www.bloomberg.com/profile/company/MNELF:US).
+
Brian Proctor, CEO of Mente Group, a U.S. consultancy, stated emissions [contributed](https://forest500.org/rankings/companies/mission-newenergy-limited) in a [business jet](https://stocktwits.com/symbol/MNEL) usage research study his company just recently [finished](https://www.bloomberg.com/profile/company/MNELF:US) for a Fortune 500 business.

"At the end of the day, I believe that rate, expense per hour, range, speed and efficiency, that's still the (sales) motorist. But I believe individuals are becoming more familiar with the sustainability of operations and how it affects the world." (Reporting By Allison Lampert, Editing by Tim Hepher and Alexandra Hudson)
