ICAO stops the suggested European system for emission trade in aviation.
The International Civil Aviation Organization, ICAO, met on the 28: Th of September and agreed amongst other things that market-based options are valuable tools for addressing aircrafts emissions. A majority of the delegations felt, however, that States should not apply emissions trading system to the airlines of other States except pursuant of mutual agreement.
The assembly also recognised the tremendous work that ICAO has been doing over the years for mitigating the impact of aviation on the environment! Hmmm, have they?
