Emissions Trading

Airline (Asia)

On Emissions Trading

Singapore Airlines

Supports the International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO) which is working to develop a series of measures to help the aviation industry as a whole reduce its contribution to climate change. These measures include: voluntary agreements, emissions trading and other offset mechanisms

 

KLM Air France

Favors the inclusion of aviation in an open Emissions Trading Scheme (ETS) as the most efficient solution for air transport to contribute to the reduction of the global CO2 emissions

 

SAS

In recent years the SAS Group – on its own and via the Association of European Airlines (AEA) – has actively sought to have aviation included in both the European and Norwegian emission trading schemes

 

British Airways

Rejection of tax and support for well designed, cost effective emissions trading

 

Lufthansa

Report on low pillars to address climate change which include emissions trading. The ICAO will develop concrete suggestions for an internationally binding trading system of emissions rights by 2007 – combined with suggestions on how emissions could be reduced by improved infrastructures and more efficient flight management

 

Virgin Atlantic Airways

Union Emissions Trading Scheme
