Friends of Earth rains on Lufthansa biofuel paradefriends of the Earth today condemned Lufthansa s use of biofuels on commercial flights as greenwashing that makes an environmentally destructive practice appear eco-friendly.

Lufthansa is painting itself green with biofuels ââ oe but these flights are anything

He issued his statement prior to the scheduled 11:15 a m. take off of Lufthansa flight LH013 from Hamburg-to-Frankfurt.

Lufthansa plans to use the fuel for 6 months on 8 daily trips between the two cities, for a total of 1200 flights.

Lufthansa says the 1200 flights will save 1500 tons o CO2. But Foe points out that jet biofuels can actually increase carbon emissions

With partial funding from the German government, Lufthansa has purchased 800 tons of blend from Finland s Neste Oil for the 6-month, â 6. 6 million biofuel program.

Foe claims that the jatropha in Neste s Lufthansa mix comes from Mozambique, and that it signals a land grab there and in other African countries.

By one estimate, jatropha would use up the equivalent of 35%of Germany s arable land to meet Lufthansa s 2025 biofuel target, Foe noted.
