The airfreight industry is facing several new and evolving environmental regulations. These aim to reduce the sector's carbon footprint and overall environmental impact. Some of these include: - Carbon Offsetting and Reduction Scheme for International Aviation (CORSIA) - European Union Emissions Trading System (EU ETS) - Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) Mandates - Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Reporting Requirements #Airfreight #EnvironmentalRegulations #SustainableAviationFuels #GreenhouseGasEmissions #CarbonOffsetting

Last June, #France formally introduced a ban on domestic short-haul flights in an effort to bring down carbon emissions. Since then, greenhouse gas emissions decreased by 3.4% in 2023 compared to in 2022 whereas, on an international level, these emissions increased. #netzero #carbonemissions #domesticflights #transportation #greenhousegasemissions #Europe

One way to reduce emissions….. especially where a rail transport system is well established… #climatechange #emissions #sustainability

Interesting news on some low-regrets, common-sense policy measures reducing CO2 emissions! Proposed measures in Spain could lead to a 10% decrease in the country’s overall emissions. While it's crucial to reflect the true environmental cost of transport, the affordability of rail should not be overlooked. In the UK, trains to Scotland can often be 2-3x the cost of flying. Encouraging more passengers to take the train could help make it a viable option for more people. #CO2emissions #transportation #environment #Spain #UK

🌍 The European Citizens' "Air-Quotas" Initiative plans to regulate citizens' carbon quotas, starting with air transport to reduce emissions. 🛫 𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐠𝐞𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐀𝐢𝐫 𝐐𝐮𝐨𝐭𝐚𝐬: 𝐂𝐨𝐬𝐭 𝐈𝐦𝐩𝐚𝐜𝐭: Increased expenses may affect ticket prices and competitiveness. 𝐎𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐀𝐝𝐣𝐮𝐬𝐭𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬: Airlines might need significant changes for compliance. 𝐑𝐞𝐠𝐮𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐲 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐞𝐱𝐢𝐭𝐲: Meeting quotas could introduce new bureaucratic challenges.

Sustainability and realistic practices are crucial in navigating the challenges posed by air quotas. 🌿𝐄𝐦𝐛𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐞:  Aligning with decarbonization goals, adoption of sustainable technologies is essential. Holistic transformation is necessary across the aviation industry to address climate challenges effectively. #AirQuotas #AviationIndustry #CarbonEmissions #Sustainability #ClimateAction https://lnkd.in/epGu_-HY

This initiative represents a pivotal moment for the aviation industry in Europe. The challenges highlighted are significant. The cost impact, potential operational adjustments, regulatory complexities, and shifts in consumer behaviour necessitate a strategic approach. However, these challenges also present an opportunity for industry-wide transformation. Embracing sustainable technologies and holistic transformation will be key in navigating the new and developing regulatory landscapes. #CarbonEmissions #AviationIndustry #Sustainability

Spain is banning some short-haul domestic flights as part of its plan to reduce carbon emissions. Flights with a rail alternative that takes less than two and a half hours will no longer be allowed, “except in cases of connection with hub airports that link with international routes”. The restriction is part of an agreement made in Congress by Spain’s coalition government. The country has been considering a ban since 2021 as part of its 2050 climate action plan.

France followed by Spain looking to ban internal flights…pushing the need for zero emissions aviation. Spain's initial draft proposal was targeted at flights where there was a train that took less than 4hrs (not 2.5hrs). This would have saved up to 300,000 tonnes of CO2 and 50,000 flights per year, according to a study released last year by Ecologistas en Acción. The coalition of environmental groups said that 11 air routes could be replaced by train journeys in under four hours, slashing Spain’s CO2 emissions by nearly 10 percent. It isn’t yet clear when measures will be introduced or which routes will be affected. The ban will need to go through several more stages of amendments before it can be approved by the Senate and finally become law.
