Industry says new legislation aimed at turning decarbonization into a growth driver does not go far enough in supporting green transition.

Our roundup of the main aerospace and defense stories making the news this week.

A Transport & Environment report highlights the challenge in squaring aviation growth with net-zero emissions plans.

European aviation’s projected growth is incompatible with the region’s climate goals, according to a new report by Brussels-based NGO Transport & Environment.

Against the backdrop of efforts to reduce aviation CO2 emissions, the impact of contrails and other non-CO2 effects is increasingly in focus.

As European airlines gear up for the entry into force of the ReFuelEU SAF mandate in less than a month, NGO Transport & Environment (T&E) ranked 77 airlines.

As pressure to cut aviation’s environmental impact intensifies, non-CO2 emissions are in the spotlight.

The study was commissioned by T&E and carried out by Netherlands-based environmental consultancy CE Delft.

Many European airlines have signed partnerships for seamless travel with rail operators, but environmentalists are skeptical of the emissions-cutting benefits.

Carriers say sustainable aviation fuel mandates are not enough and call for incentives to keep up with the U.S. and other competitors.

The Airport Tracker is an updated inventory of CO2 and air pollution at the world’s biggest airports.

A Transport & Environment study highlights uncertainties surrounding ambitious e-fuel plans in Europe.

T & E’s latest study has identified 25 industrial projects and 20 smaller pilot projects that pledge to produce synthetic fuels for aviation.

T&E’s calculations show air transport’s emissions in France could be cut 4.5%, up from barely 1%, if the duration threshold was increased to 5 hr.

The airport’s flight cap reprieve provides summer season clarity, but European aviation increasingly will be in the environmental spotlight this year.
