A group of international environmental and science organizations called on IATA to support a global market-based measure (MBM) to reduce aviation emissions. The letter argues that technical and operational measures alone are insufficient to meet climate targets and that a fragmented approach of domestic policies will not achieve science-based goals. The signatories demand that any MBM include science-compatible targets, strict compliance, and limited access to offsets.

• Aviation is responsible for five percent of human-caused global warming effects, and these emissions are projected to grow significantly, threatening the goal of limiting global warming to 2°C above pre-industrial levels.
• Technical and operational measures to reduce emissions are insufficient to address the aviation sector's required share of global emissions reductions.
• For a global market-based measure to be credible, it must feature targets aligned with climate science, strict compliance provisions, limited use of offsets, and strong environmental credibility for traded units.
