In 2022, aviation accounted for 2% of global CO2 emissions. Advantages: Bioethanol production is a fully commercialized technology with robust supply chains, primarily as an additive to gasoline in the US and Brazil, with some use in Europe as well.   But all this travel comes at a steep carbon cost.
