A Radical New Plan for Aviation
Summary
The briefing asserts that aviation emissions are exceeding forecasts and that the Carbon Offsetting and Reduction Scheme for International Aviation (CORSIA) is inadequate for achieving climate stability targets.
Key insights
- Aviation emissions are increasing more rapidly than previously predicted, with carbon dioxide emissions expected to reach 1 gigaton per year by 2020, representing between 3% and 9% of annual global emissions.
- The Carbon Offsetting and Reduction Scheme for International Aviation (CORSIA), which covers 75% of flights, is insufficient to meet established goals or climate stability targets.
