Reducing emissions from aeroplanes
Description
Reducing emissions from aeroplanes involves implementing measures to lower greenhouse gas output and other pollutants from aviation. Key actions include adopting fuel-efficient aircraft technologies, optimizing flight operations, increasing the use of sustainable aviation fuels, and improving air traffic management. These strategies aim to mitigate the environmental impact of air travel, address regulatory requirements, and support global climate targets by directly reducing the sector’s contribution to atmospheric pollution and climate change.
Context
Air traffic is considered to be the biggest growth sector in terms of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions.
