LAS VEGAS, Oct 22 (Reuters) - At the world's most significant market show in Las [Vegas luxury](https://pitchbook.com/profiles/company/51278-86) jets are enticing buyers with their streamlined silhouettes, luxurious cabins - and increasingly, their use of alternative fuels.
+
Fuel manufacturers and jetmakers are keen to display unique types of air travel fuel deemed less hazardous to the environment, from used cooking oil to the definitely less attractive meat waste.
+
operators, like airline companies, have actually bowed to environmental pressure on air travel and committed to halving carbon emissions by 2050 compared with 2005.
+
Their hope is that embracing eco-friendly fuel to [suppress emissions](https://www.marketscreener.com/quote/stock/MISSION-NEWENERGY-LIMITED-178469/company/) could make company jets more attractive to [ecologically mindful](https://www.bloomberg.com/profile/company/MNELF:US) buyers - particularly corporations dealing with questions over sustainability from shareholders or green project groups.
+
The accessibility of less [polluting private](https://www.marketscreener.com/quote/stock/MISSION-NEWENERGY-LIMITED-178469/company/) jets could also spare the [abundant](https://www.bloomberg.com/profile/company/MNELF:US) and famous the unfavorable publicity experienced by [Britain's Prince](https://www.marketscreener.com/quote/stock/MISSION-NEWENERGY-LIMITED-178469/company/) Harry and his better half Meghan over a recent personal jet trip to southern France.
+
Five Gulfstream jets on display in Las Vegas are utilizing California-produced fuel from inedible beef tallow.
+
The newest waste-based fuels consist of "fats, grease and oils that are by-products of the food market," said Bryan Sherbacow, primary commercial officer of Boston-based [biofuel](https://www.zoominfo.com/c/mission-newenergy/346542889) manufacturer World Energy, which produces fuel from meat waste used by Gulfstream.
+
"All of our product is inedible."
+
Some of the other 79 airplane on screen are [expected](https://www.intelligentinvestor.com.au/shares/asx-mbt/mission-newenergy-limited/share-price) to be powered by 150,000 gallons of other renewable fuel blends anticipated to be pumped at the program.

FLIGHT SHAMING
+
Private jets represent less than 0.1% of total yearly carbon emissions worldwide, but can give off, usually, approximately 20 times more [carbon emissions](https://www.bloomberg.com/profile/company/MNELF:US) per [passenger](https://www.zoominfo.com/c/mission-newenergy/346542889) mile than jetliners, according to the [London-based personal](https://www.proactiveinvestors.com.au/ASX:MBT/Mission-NewEnergy-Ltd) charter firm Victor.
+
Prince Harry has safeguarded his periodic use of personal jets to ensure his household's security, and has actually stated that on the uncommon events he does not fly commercially he offsets his emissions.
+
But planemakers say events such as the furore over his travel plan have [included](https://www.crunchbase.com/organization/mission-newenergy) fresh obstacles for an industry currently striving to validate its contribution to cutting corporate expenses.
+
"Incidents of flight shaming including the usage of personal jets are unfortunate when you consider that our market has provided fuel performance enhancements of 40% over the previous 40 years," stated Bombardier [Aviation President](https://www.proactiveinvestors.com.au/ASX:MBT/Mission-NewEnergy-Ltd) David Coleal.
+
Bombardier believes increased sustainable fuel use will assist the market make [inroads](https://www.marketscreener.com/quote/stock/MISSION-NEWENERGY-LIMITED-178469/company/) with corporations and rich purchasers. According to industry data, billionaires only have a 19% [company jet](https://www.crunchbase.com/organization/mission-newenergy) ownership rate.
+
But even an image makeover - with jets sporting stickers like "this airplane flies on renewable fuels" and organisers adding [alternative fuel](https://www.intelligentinvestor.com.au/shares/asx-mbt/mission-newenergy-limited/share-price) pumps for going to airplanes - is unlikely to please all critics at the Oct 22-24 luxury jet event.
+
Environmentalists and some experts stay [skeptical](https://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/companies/news/159352/mission-newenergy-debt-free-focused-on-biofuel-joint-venture-60797.html) that biojetfuels, normally combined 50-50 with kerosene, will make a substantial effect on public understandings about high-end travel.
+
"No quantity of [jatropha curcas](https://www.pinterest.com.au/missionnewenergy/) or Brazil-nut fuel can make service jets look eco-friendly," said aviation analyst Richard Aboulafia.
+
Demand from company jet operators for sustainable fuels now far exceeds supply and their interest could drive future production, Sherbacow said.
+
World Energy, which produces 40 million gallons of [biofuel](https://www.investing.com/equities/mission-newenergy-ltd-company-profile) at its California plant, might expand production up to 150 million gallons by 2022.
+
Corporate charter business and experts are likewise seeing more interest from customers who want to purchase carbon [credits](https://www.nasdaq.com/market-activity/ipos/overview?dealId=804419-65608) to balance out emissions from their flights.
+
Brian Proctor, CEO of Mente Group, a U.S. consultancy, said emissions played a function in a business jet usage study his business just recently finished for a Fortune 500 [business](https://forest500.org/rankings/companies/mission-newenergy-limited).

"At the end of the day, I believe that rate, expense per hour, range, speed and performance, that's still the (sales) chauffeur. But I believe individuals are becoming more knowledgeable about the sustainability of operations and how it affects the planet."
