Aviation and Climate Change

"Climate Change is an existential threat to the way aviation does business. Change is needed, but needed more is sensible, evidence-based, thoughtful analysis of what happens next. This book starts that process."— Andrew Charlton, Managing Director, Aviation Advocacy, Switzerland

"Aviation has proven to be one of the most difficult sectors to include in climate change policies. This volume brings together some of the most eminent thinkers on measures to address climate impacts of aviation. It is a very useful reference for policy makers, academics, NGOs and anybody interested in the issue." — Jasper Faber, Aviation and maritime specialist, manager Mobility & Transport, CE Delft, Netherlands

"Excellent! Robust, compelling arguments and thought-provoking conclusions.

This book provides a well-researched comprehensive and holistic overview of all aspects pertaining to THE most important driver of aviation in the years to come. The Corona crisis will undeniably impact the size and possibly structure of the aviation market; but that makes this book even more relevant. Irrespective of how aviation will overcome the Corona crisis, the sector will only become more resilient if appropriate measures are taken to enforce its sustainability. This will require innovation, interoperable technology and vision. Because of its interdisciplinary nature, I strongly recommend this book as orientation for decision makers in the public and private sector."— Ulrich Schulte-Strathaus, Managing Director at Aviation Strategy & Concepts, former Secretary General of the Association of European Airlines

"This detailed, in-depth report on recent research provides an excellent benchmark for evaluating various policy schemes as well as a solid base for any paradigm shifts that may soon be adopted in international aviation and airspace transport. Authors provide extensive comparisons of emissions trading policies, including coverage of the International Civil Aviation Organization's voluntary protocol known as CORSIA. Summing Up: Recommended. Upper-division undergraduates. Graduate students, faculty, and professionals"---J. Agee, independent scholar, CHOICE Review
