Will the Aviation Sector’s Planned Carbon Offset Scheme Help Curb Emissions from Air Travel?
A critical analysis of the ongoing UN ICAO negotiations to curb global aviation emissions:
"Supported by the UN, governments across the world, and the aviation industry itself, this plan may stand a pretty good chance of actually being implemented. But it also has many NGO’s crying foul, claiming that its focus on emissions offsets rather than reductions, as well as its lack of transparency and its voluntary nature will give individuals and the aviation industry a license to continue escalating their emissions instead of actually reducing them."
