03 May 2024 CW Team

A recent study has revealed that India ranked among the top five developing countries in aviation emissions in 2019. This finding underscores the significant contribution of India's aviation sector to global carbon emissions and highlights the need for sustainable measures to mitigate environmental impact.

The study analysed data from 2019 to assess the carbon footprint of aviation in developing countries. It found that India, along with other developing nations, contributed substantially to the overall emissions from the aviation sector.

India's inclusion in the top five emphasises the urgency of implementing measures to reduce carbon emissions from aviation operations. Sustainable practices such as investing in fuel-efficient aircraft, optimising flight routes, and promoting alternative fuels are essential for mitigating the environmental impact of air travel.

Furthermore, the study underscores the importance of international cooperation and coordination in addressing aviation emissions. Collaborative efforts among countries, airlines, and regulatory bodies are crucial for developing effective strategies to combat climate change and achieve carbon neutrality in the aviation sector.

The findings of the study serve as a wake-up call for stakeholders in the aviation industry to prioritise sustainability and environmental responsibility. By adopting eco-friendly practices and embracing innovation, India can play a leading role in mitigating aviation emissions and contributing to global efforts to combat climate change.

Overall, the study highlights the need for concerted action to reduce aviation emissions and transition towards a more sustainable and environmentally friendly aviation sector.
