Even though his hotel chain Nordic Choice has profiled itself as a green company, owner Petter Stordalen is now taking over a company in the maligned aviation industry.\u00a0
\u201dI don't think the solution is shame,\u201d says Petter Stordalen.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Petter Stordalen, together with Altor and TDR, is buying the Swedish charter company Ving. It is a company in an industry that has recently come under fire for humanity's high carbon dioxide emissions. At the same time, it is an owner that runs a hotel chain, Nordic Choice, which has profiled itself as green. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
How does it work? He also highlights the future possibilities of using biofuel in flights as a possible solution to the company's climate problems.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201dIn the future, aviation will become much more sustainable,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In the future yes, but how is it going right now? Will you incorporate 50 percent biofuel into Ving's plan going forward? Do you feel flight shy?

<\/strong>\u201d"The simple answer is: Ving is perhaps the world's most sustainable travel company today. They climate compensate for the entire journey from A to Z. We will continue to do so," says Petter Stordalen. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/strong>\u201d"Several companies have already started to blend biofuel. I have read reports that in practice you can use almost 50 percent biofuel in flights already today," says Petter Stordalen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/strong>\u201d"First, we will take over the company and carry on Ving's 60-year tradition. Ving's sustainability work is the best in the industry and we will continue to do so," says Petter Stordalen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/strong>\u201d"I don't think the solution is shame. I think the solution is to find new solutions and I think we will soon see that aviation becomes more environmentally friendly and that it runs on other types of fuel," he says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
