Kolibri

Where do you want to go today? Where do you want to fly tomorrow? And all we need is a kickstart investment to show #sustainableaviation is possible. And profitable. #impactinvesting #disruptiveimpact #unsdgs

Can someone find investors for @Kolibri? We don't need those budgets, we need comparably mini investments to then also return #fossilfree profits and proof that the investments pay off! IMHO such calls for megabudgets #distractanddivert - #greenwashing just like #panaceadistraction

Given such a budget, we could start flying fossil-free within a year or two. Profitable in three. But it's fancier to invest into buzzwords and talk about how green it will be(come)? #impactinvestors #sustainableinvestment

Are you into #impactinvestment and #sustainableinvesting? This is just the extract on our deck how we address the U.N. #sdgs holistically. Ask us. #nocherrypicking #therealthing and as impact investment: #profitable with #roi

"SynFuel is too expensive" World Fund study A rather commonly raised reasoning against investing in #synfuels. But what a short-sighted argument? Do you have a business case? Then define "too expensive". The World Fund report: https://lnkd.in/eZE5GgiD ends though: "True innovators that can commercialise new and novel processes have the potential to capture a significant share of the SAF market. If the climate impact of electrofuels becomes proven, these investments will be extremely compelling." Not just about new and novel processes, but also about new and novel business cases? And the climate impact of electrofuels (synfuel) is proven. Or would you prefer to have fossils burned, World Fund? IMHO that report is just another one in the long line of academic reports to reinforce boxes. #distractanddivert #cognitivedissonance #selfdeception We talk about 2.5 GIGAtons fossil CO2 replaced by green, renewable/recycled CO2 per year within 10 years. We talk about profitability. And yes, it's a challenge. Beyond the nice fancy A.I. or small *tech investments that are #fartoolittlefartoolate. We talk about an #industrydisruptor. But yes, disqualifying it quickly on "common knowledge" without thinking, it makes us the callers in the dark. Fighting a strong #greenwashingindustry that creates, uses and promotes such reports to quickly disqualify the real solutions. Call for #impactinvestors You want change? Really? Or is it just more #cherrypicking #talkthetalk with fancy investments into #greenwishing you look for? If you want #industrialscaleimpact, let us talk. #impactinvesting #sustainableaviation #fossilfreeaviation #railshame #thinkoutsidethebox

"By 2040, [...] global renewable fuel production [...] reaching over 1,000 megatons of oil equivalent. Today, global energy demand for transport is 2,668 megatons of oil equivalent across all modes of transport." Is that so? I'm afraid, more (but realistic) food for climate-delayers. And by then, the industry is dependent on another "fuel supplier". It's why for Kolibri, we envisioned a different approach to secure our own access to truly sustainable (green) aviation fuels. Yes, we could fly 100% fossil-free within 10 years (if some investors would finance our launch, based on our business and financial plans (aka. commitments). Making Kolibri a - profitable! - lighthouse project that and how we can speed up the development making a 100% fossil flying a realistic possibility for the entire aviation industry for 2040-50. Increasing the pressure on the political establishment to stop their fossil support in favor for a real "green deal". Want to know more? Speak to us!

Real and holistic sustainability needs real capital! We had another two talks with #impactinvestors and #climateinvestors, confirming our point and targets, but targeting low-budget projects. Generally, we have a growing impression that #sustainability is focused on #cherrypicking the #lowhangingfruit and #lipservices, something that can be argued to be in support for the #greenwashingindustry and #panaceadistraction. A little investment here and there that looks good (and often does neither fit #circulareconomy nor a positive #lifecycleanalysis). If you can't #leavethebeatenpath and #thinkoutsidetheboy (way outside!), don't help investors pay for their indulgences by investing into small scale projects that have no real and measurable impact to the U.N. Sustainable Development Goals at large. We have a growing #sdgfundinggap, for which we need real capital and target #industrialscaleprojects and sometimes to #leaveyourcomfortzone! And to #listen. Listen openminded to ideas. Because #unicorns are usually not found inside #boxes or on #chartedmaps. #yougetwhatyoupayfor #sdgfundinggap #walkthetalk

Did you know? That German Rail owns coal-fired power plants? That ground sealing of rail and road actually would favor Kolibri's plans for fossil-free flying? That our plans contain sustainable developments to contribute to profits? If you don't know Jürgen's blog yet, head over to https://lnkd.in/ebsgiyR3 If you have the means to help us launch Kolibri, what keeps you from talking to us? If you know people with the means to impact and disrupt aviation, why don't you send them our way? It can be done. All it needs is someone able to fund our launch, to ignite our take-off. Someone sharing our vision.

We CAN fly 200 airplanes within 10 years fossil-free and carbon-neutral. With a sound profit. And a holistic sustainable approach on all 17 SDGs. What we lack is committed investors to let us explain the business plan. #impactinvesting #talkthetalk #listenandlearn #familyoffices #fossilfreeflying #fossilfreeaviation #sustainableaviation #industrydisruptor #theworldaintflat If you are an investor or politician with investor-relations, please do reach out to us to learn why this ain't heresy, but a realistic approach. #walkthetalk (image courtesy Juergen) P.S.: No up-front funding for self-proclaimed investment brokers, no matter how "safe" you see to secure the investment. If you're that sure, we do offer an attractive finder's fee: #lessonlearned

#callforimpactinvestors to call us. You believe the lobbies' #naysayers? Or you are interested to prove a fleet of 200 commercial aircraft can fly fossil-free in 10 years? #makeachange and reach out to us and allow us to explain the how, why, what.
