Aviation faces C2 squeeze while EU states bankroll the sector
EUobserver.com
The bloc adopted legislation in January of this year that requires aviation emissions to reduce by three percent on 2005 levels by 2012 and five percent by 2013. The companies which also include European aerospace manufacturers such as France’s arms producer Dassault and the multinational plane-maker Airbus have until January of 2010 to submit to the commission their strategies for emissions reductions. So long as the companies submit data on their fuel consumption for 2010 and 2011 by this period then they will be awarded 85 percent of their emissions permits for free for the period through 2012. But without permits the airlines may have trouble landing at European airports although sector experts do not believe this will happen any time soon. The policy has faced heavy opposition from the International Air Transport Association and the UN’s International Civil Aviation rganisation which itself is tasked with regulating emissions from aircraft under the Kyoto protocol.
