Iskandinav airlines launched the first green flights in SAS on 5 March.

[[T]]]"Do not have a green flight or a good savings policy" if we leave their questions aside, other large companies that will apply the li of this program will also have reduced the pollution pushed to the environment with air traffic at the correct. [[[T]] [[

Green flight and alternative air fuel program target to convert eight from 10 each flight to SAS group 2012, whoises will hunger a piece of seizures that are turning to Green Flight. SAS green flight program announced the public with the flight route to the oral area with the flight numbered SK7011. [

[How to get green flights?]]

]

Do not wait for a long time departure on the track before airin g. When the planes are set up like taxis, just according to to flight traffic before getting up. [

[

By the way is actually doing several rounds that are accessible to get the flight position. After airing, if long-distance flight, it will not make speed when it is in the air, the use of fuel (such as poor the use of fuel while poor the use of cars down). This will save about 5 tons of fuel per hour.

If the aircraft can reduce the amount of fuel will push use, it will emit less carbon dioxide in the environment. Thus, both the company will gain the environment. Meanwhile, a new digital program will be used in air traffic to go in full time to the port of transportation. According to this program, the pilot will always see the distance to the point and the obstacles time.

]]50 thousand tons per year less carbon dioxide

Airlines Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Finland Airlines and other medium-sized air traffic companies in these countries start to implement this savings policy. [

Today green flights start in Stockholm will take place in Oslo, later in Goteborg, the capital of Norway. In addition to these flights that are fuel-efficient, SAS states that they continue to research alternative air fuel. It will also reduce the damage caused by aircraft to improve flight technique and aircraft technology.

Two percent of the harmful carbon dioxide gas to the environment arises during flight traffic. The rising gas in the air is one of the most important causes of global warming and therefore climate changes. Scandinavian airlines currently have 300 flights and only last year 107 thousand flights.

If this program had been applied last year, the air would spread less than 50 thousand tons.

Info: The amount of fuel spent in a minute without passengers or in the empty amount of each aircraft emitters 25 kg and 450 kg of carbon dioxide even in each flight with the exception of the passengers. [email protected]
