The places, landscapes and environments that we love to fly to and visit are being compromised and degraded by climate change. A carbon price and/or emissions trading scheme, is the most efficient way to incentivise the market to reduce emissions. This would allow sectors that currently lack emissions reduction technology to benefit from sectors with a greater capacity to reduce emissions. Examples might include aviation purchasing permits from agriculture allowing this sector to increase investment in soil carbon or aviation purchasing permits that may help to support the accelerated retirement of coal-fired power stations. In the meantime, while we wait for the right policy settings, as passengers and pilots we can offset the carbon emissions on our commercial flights. Ecologi is an organisation that can help you to offset your carbon footprint.
