Description

In October 2022, the International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO) set a goal for net-zero carbon emissions in aviation by 2050. Achieving this requires significant emission reductions, with investments in Sustainable Aviation Fuels (SAF), new aircraft technologies, and various policy instruments. The adoption of cleaner fuels and aircraft, along with regulatory measures, may raise costs and impact travel patterns, air route connectivity, and the broader economy. This session will discuss the consequences of decarbonising aviation and strategies to mitigate adverse effects, focusing on three key areas: • Addressing impacts on connectivity to maintain the global transport network for business, trade, and social wellbeing. • Promoting tourism within decarbonisation priorities by supporting shorter distance destinations, longer stays, and cleaner transport modes and fuels. • Ensuring a just transition that considers social and labour impacts.
