SIMPLIFIED VIEW OF AVIATION EMISSIONS
• Aviation needs to flourish with reduced
environmental impact
• Aviation is necessary for development
Facts:
• 8% Global GDP
• 2% man made CO2 emissions
• Over 40 years the focus on innovation
has lead to
– 70% reduced aviation fuel consumption
and related CO2 emissions
Targets:
• Carbon Neutral growth by 2020
• 50% CO2 reductions by 2050 compared
to 2005
