United Airlines Launches Eco-Skies Alliance

It will use about 3.4 million gallons. While only a fraction of the total jet fuel it consumes annually, it triples the one million gallons of sustainable fuel it uses on average each year.
There are a dozen partners contributing to the Eco-Skies Alliance. Like many major airlines United is committed to cutting all net carbon emissions from aviation fuel by 2050.
