Aviation Emissions Expected To Fall

Aviation emissions "expected to fall" by Cheap Flights Booker UK



Carbon dioxide emissions from the aviation sector are expected to fall this year, an industry expert has revealed.
Paul Steele, executive director of the Air Transport Action Group (ATAG), said that there is a prevailing opinion in Britain that emissions from flights are constantly going up.
He claimed that this is not the case and also highlighted the fact that aviation is an important driver of economic activity around the world.
"In the current environment, due to economic downturn, we are expecting aviation emissions to fall this year and possibly below 2005 levels," Mr Steele said.
The ATAG director also argued that more attention should be paid to other industries that are responsible for harmful emissions, claiming that aviation is a victim of its own prominence.
"The aviation sector is quite high profile and it is very visible in terms of a service. There are many other industries that produce a greater amount of CO2 than aviation, whose emissions are also growing," he said.
Ahead of a United Nations conference in Copenhagen in December, the British government has been advised by the Committee on Climate Change to cap aviation emissions as part of a global environmental agreement.
