However, big data may be helpful in this case as well. For example, after analyzing user preferences and demand, airlines will be able to revise their schedule, to firstly, satisfy the demand (that will be lower during the next years) and <strong>reduce their emissions<\/strong>. Also, if the demand is high but there is still a need to have a middle seat free, with the help of AI-powered data analysis they will be able to <strong>find the balance between health safety, real demand, and carbon footprint reduction<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_37465\" class=\"thumbnail alignnone\"><img class=\"wp-image-37465 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/ecobnb.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/11\/big-data.jpg\" alt=\"big data\" width=\"870\" height=\"490\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ecobnb.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/11\/big-data.jpg 870w, https:\/\/ecobnb.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/11\/big-data-536x302.jpg 536w, https:\/\/ecobnb.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/11\/big-data-768x433.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ecobnb.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/11\/big-data-570x320.jpg 570w, https:\/\/ecobnb.com\/blog\/app\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/11\/big-data-344x194.jpg 344w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 870px) 100vw, 870px\" \/><div class=\"caption\">Photo via Canva<\/div><\/div>\n<h2>Achieving Zero Waste<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Hotels and restaurants<\/strong> are responsible for a third of all <a href=\"https:\/\/ecobnb.com\/blog\/2020\/07\/food-waste-problem\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">food waste<\/a> in the world.
