Business

For this week's post I would like you to write about an industry you have had direct experience with that you think has potential to benefit from adopting and adapting a sustainable business attitude.

Direct experience with. Well- I have direct experience with the field of aviation for my whole life. My father, mother, and brother are all pilots, and I am an aspiring commerical/military pilot as well. As for the military industry? I think they would definitely benefit from adapting a sustainable business attitude. Think about it. Our government pushing biodiesel fuel made from algae to produce a more cost efficient and environmentally friendly airplane would be a great start for our nation. Commercial aviation is on the cutting edge when it comes to finding a more sustainable way to fuel and build newer and better airplanes. From the way that the structure is composed of recycled materials, to the algae used in the new biodiesel started by Boeing (which strikes a chord with me because it is an American company:)). Regardless I think both of these branches of aviation can benefit incredulously by utilizing a sustainable approach.
