Global aviation industry is aiming to reach net zero emissions by 2050

 

 

The global aviation industry is aiming to reach net zero emissions by 2050. But the “net” in that commitment is misleading consumers and creating legal risks for airline companies, a new study has found.

Many airlines now offer their customers the chance to buy carbon offsets along with their ticket. But the offset credits that airlines buy with the money are mostly cheap and of low quality, according to an analysis of eight European airlines by Carbon Market Watch.

The study suggests that not only are airlines failing to truly offset flight emissions, they may also be prolonging the transition to cleaner flying.
