Aviation Emissions in Context • Fast, reliable, and safe mode of transport • 2.3 billion passengers per year carried worldwide • Scheduled passenger traffic worldwide forecast to grow at 4.6% per year • Aircraft produced today are 70% more fuel efficient than 40 years ago • First sector with a special IPCC report (1999) • Responsible for up to 8% of global economy Global GHG Emissions by Sector, 2004 Global Transportation CO 2 Emissions, 2000 Aviation’s Global CO 2 Emissions, 2000 (Int’l Aviation’s Contribution was ~1.2%) Residential and Aviation CO 2 Commercial Buildings Aviation Emissions Agriculture 8% 2% 13% 14% Waste and Transport 13% Other 3% Wastewater 13% Forestry 17% 26% Road Global CO 2 Energy Supply Emissions 74% Source: IPCC 98% 19% Industry
Sustainability is a Journey Programme of Action • A global goal of 2% annual fuel efficiency SUSTAINABILITY improvement • Further exploration of more ambitious goals (including carbon neutral growth and long- term emission reductions) • Development of a CO 2 standard for aircraft • Development of a framework for market- based measures • Measures to facilitate access to assistance for States
• More ambitious goals • Framework for market-based measures • Provisions for ensuring that States receive the assistance that they need • Agreement on preparation of action plans by States
Implementation • Basket of measures – Technology – Operations – Alternative Fuels – Economic Instruments • State action plans are critical – National activities to support global goals – Identify resources needed 5
Sustainable alternative fuels could unlock the future. Looks like a circle Could be the www.icao.int/AltFuels key
Summary • Considerable progress in the last 3 years • En-route to a sustainable future for International Aviation • Enabled by global efforts and collective will of ICAO Member States and the Industry 8
