They way you have environmentally friendly planes is by replacing them with trains. I doubt burning shit just to fly will be good for the environment.

Let's replace all intercontinental flights with high speed rail and sleeper trains, and only use planes for long haul flights over water. For those planes that do stay in the sky, let's fuel them with renewables. Poo based jet fuel does not add carbon to the environment.
