U.S. to Object to UN Green Jet Fuel Recommendation

U.S. to Object to UN Green Jet Fuel Recommendation

Imagine airplanes are trying to use cleaner fuel to help the environment.

The UN, a group of countries working together, has ideas on how to make this happen.

The U.S. is not happy with one of these ideas, which it thinks gives an unfair advantage to corn farmers in Brazil, who want to make the fuel.

The U.S. believes the plan could hurt farmers at home, where they also want to make cleaner fuel.

Brazil worries that arguing about the plan might make it harder to trust whether the cleaner fuel is truly good for the environment.
