I thought this was an impossible goal. I can see all ground equipment complying, but am dubious about the aircraft.
Could this be part of their plans?

Airlines really mean they are going to buy carbon offsets (ie pay somebody to plant trees, etc), not that they are going to actually stop burning jet A. In theory that should work, but the eco-freaks don't really care for the idea.
