Can we really create clean air travel from used cooking oil? Talking with SAF insider Naomichi Teruzaki

Naomichi Hiro Terazaki has worked in the hospitality and tourism industry for many years and has great insights from his role as an advisor for SAF (Sustainable Aviation Fuel) businesses REVO international and Euglena co.

SAF could be a huge step forward to reducing the biggest environmental cost of the tourism industry created by aircraft. I'd like to learn more about this industry- what's your take?

His career started with studying international ocean law in London, and he told me after the podcast that he is also working with the government to interview applicants who are seeking asylum and coming as refugees. So many varied fields, but all connected to finding a better balance for people-planet-profits to ensure a brighter common future - that's so important for sustainability.

As you hear in the beginning of the talk, Terazaki-san is also a campaigner for the SAVE JINGU GAIEN campaign asking the Tokyo government to pause the redevelopment project which will destroy old buildings and nearly 1000 beautiful trees - please sign the campaign page below.
