Sustainable Aviation: Insights into Mitigating Contrails
Commercial aviation accounts for over 2.5% of global carbon dioxide emissions, making business air travel a significant contributor to many organizations' carbon footprints. While pathways like sustainable aviation fuel are still emerging, there are considerable opportunities within the aviation industry to reduce emissions—especially through contrail mitigation. In this webinar, Marc Shapiro, Director of Contrails at Breakthrough Energy, and Colin McCormick, Principal Scientist at Carbon Direct, explore strategies and innovations for contrail mitigation.
Key takeaways:
The impact of contrails on flight emissions.
How modeling different flight routes can affect contrail-related emissions.
The latest advancements in calculating flight contrail emissions.
