CEVA Logistics has announced its involvement as an inaugural participant in United Airlines' Eco-Skies Alliance, a first of its kind programme involving leading global corporations working with the airline to power future flying in a more sustainable way.
CEVA Logistics and other Eco-Skies Alliance leaders will work with United to collectively purchase 3.4 million gallons of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) this year. With its nearly 80 per cent emissions reductions on a lifecycle basis compared to conventional jet fuel, this is enough SAF to eliminate 31,000 tonnes of greenhouse gas emissions, or enough to fly passengers more than 200 million miles.
As an inaugural participant, CEVA Logistics is taking a lead in the air cargo industry to reduce the logistics-related impact on the environment at the source by creating demand for more SAF.
'At CEVA, we deliver responsive logistics for our customers, and as part of the CMA CGM Group, we're strongly committed to acting for the planet in the areas of climate change, air quality and biodiversity,' CEVA Logistics CEO Mathieu Friedberg.
Said United CEO Scott Kirbynited: 'We applaud those participating in the Eco-Skies Alliance for recognising the need to go beyond carbon offsets and support SAF-powered flying, which will lead to more affordable supply and ultimately, lower emissions.'
