DUBLIN, IRELAND, January 1, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Tao Climate is revolutionising the aviation industry with an unexpected hero: hemp. Long associated with ropes, textiles, and, well, certain recreational uses, hemp is now proving itself as a sustainable powerhouse capable of decarbonising one of the most polluting industries on the planet.

With its cutting-edge Monitoring, Reporting,

and Verification (MRV) platform, Tao Climate is helping airlines reduce emissions and offset their carbon footprints using innovative carbon removal credits derived from hemp cultivation. Hemp isn’t just about capturing CO2—it’s also emerging as a promising feedstock for Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF), offering a dual solution to decarbonise aviation while building a more sustainable future.

“Hemp is nature’s overachiever,” says Gary Byrnes, CEO, Tao Climate. “It grows quickly, absorbs vast amounts of carbon dioxide, and can even be processed into biofuel. We’re turning this humble plant into a game-changer for aviation.”

By incorporating hemp into SAF production, airlines can slash their reliance on traditional fossil fuels and significantly reduce lifecycle emissions. Meanwhile, Tao Climate’s MRV platform ensures absolute transparency, so airlines and their passengers know the exact impact of their carbon reduction efforts.

The aviation industry is under increasing pressure to clean up its act, with consumers demanding greener travel options. Tao Climate is offering a practical, scalable solution, so that people can fly as often as they like, with complete peace of mind—and a touch of humour to lighten the load.

“No turbulence here,” quips Felix Roick, COO, Tao Climate. “With hemp, we’re helping airlines land softly on the green side of history.”

Tao Climate is now inviting airlines and aviation stakeholders to join its Lift pilot programme and explore how hemp-powered carbon removal and SAF production can transform the future of flight.
