Flying on magic fuels

• October 2020
At the age of 5, Ollie Haas summoned his toy plane collection to start his first airline called 'Rabbit Airways'. After discovering that planes were harmful to the environment, he decided that Rabbit Airways would fly on a magical clean fuel. Driven by the conflict between his passions for aviation and the environment, Ollie has embarked on a life-long adventure to learn how to make flying more sustainable. In this talk, he shares practical steps we can take to reduce the impact of our flying today and reminds us to keep dreaming big about what we can achieve in the future. After all, his "magical fuels" – in the form of electric aircraft, sustainable fuels and hydrogen – are now on the near horizon!
