Boeing's Cascade climate impact modeling tool is intended to help the aviation industry see how different fuel sources affect their sustainability goals.

Boeing released a free public version of its Cascade climate impact modeling tool on Wednesday. It allows users to explore strategies for making aviation more sustainable and quantify how different technologies might reduce, or even increase, the industry's carbon footprint. 

​​”Cascade helps airline operators, industry partners, and policymakers see when, where, and how different fuel sources affect their sustainability goals,” said Neil Titchener, who leads the Cascade program at Boeing. “Our industry has really hard questions ahead of us, [and] we're going to have to make difficult choices. Cascade can be the conversation starter for how each decarbonization pathway can help us reach a more sustainable future.”
