CORSIA - Carbon Offsetting and Reduction Scheme for International Aviation
As international air travel continues to grow, so do concerns about its environmental impact. CORSIA, or the Carbon Offsetting and Reduction Scheme for International Aviation, tackles this challenge. Airlines first strive to reduce CO2 emissions through cleaner technologies and efficient operations. They then track and report their remaining emissions. To compensate for these unavoidable emissions, airlines invest in projects like tree-planting initiatives that remove CO2 from the atmosphere. By incentivizing both emission reduction and offsetting, CORSIA aims to make air travel more sustainable and minimize its contribution to climate change.
