Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book analyses the political, economic and managerial challenges for policy makers and the air transport industry as they face climate change. Based on an overview of the scientific background and technological options for emissions reduction, Aviation and Climate Change provides an in-depth assessment of environmental regulation and management. It provides an up-to-the-minute analysis of the effects of aviation on climate change, and an economic analysis of policies to reduce or eliminate greenhouse gas emissions. The main emphasis of the book is on the economic mechanisms used to lessen emissions – carbon taxes, emissions trading schemes and offset schemes. It pays particular attention to the ways these policies work, and to the interaction between them – for instance, the interaction between taxes and emissions trading schemes. One feature of the book is that it analyses the Carbon Offsetting and Reduction Scheme for International Aviation (CORSIA) which has been developed by ICAO for international aviation, and which is due to commence operation shortly. The advantages and disadvantages of this controversial scheme are discussed. This book will be of interest to researchers in diverse areas (economics, political science, engineering, natural sciences), to air transport policy makers, and to managers in the aviation industry.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'This is a timely, challenging and fascinating book on a topic of central importance to the success or otherwise of our climate change policies. It sets down a clear marker for what has to be done in the aviation sector.' Professor John Whitelegg, Stockholm Environment Institute, University of York, UK 'Climate Change and Aviation presents a clear picture of the transport sector's greatest challenge: how to reconcile aviation's immense popularity with its considerable environmental damage and its dependence on liquid hydrocarbon energy sources. This book avoids wishful thinking and takes the much harder, but more productive, path of considering difficult solutions that clash with short-term and short-sighted expectations about the unlimited growth potential for flying.' Professor Anthony Perl, Urban Studies Program, Simon Fraser University, Canada 'A convincing and timely collection that brings together an impressive range of expertise. The book integrates various perspectives into a powerful core argument - we must do something, and quickly, to tackle the impact of aviation on our environment. The authors recognise the political difficulties associated with promoting change but present constructive options for policy makers. Required reading, especially for transport ministers set on promoting the growth of air travel.' Professor Jon Shaw, Director of the Centre for Sustainable Transport, University of Plymouth, UK Trends such as the massive growth in availability of air travel and air freight are among those which have led to aviation becoming one of the fastest growing emitters of greenhouse gases. These trends have also caused a shift in expectations of how we do business, where we go on holiday, and what food and goods we can buy. For these reasons aviation is (and is set to stay) high up on global political, organizational and media agendas. This textbook is the first to attempt a comprehensive review of the topic, bringing together an international team of leading scientists. Starting with the science of the environmental issues, it moves on to cover drivers and trends of growth, socio-economics and politics, as well as mitigation options, the result being a broad yet detailed examination of the field. This is essential reading for undergraduate and postgraduate courses in transport, tourism, the environment, geography and beyond, while also being a valuable resource for professionals and policymakers seeking a clear understanding of this complex yet urgently pressing issue.

This book was released on 2019-09-15 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Capacities, Capacity Constraints and Capacity Reserves of Airports, Today and in the Future analyzes airport capacity constraints with empirical methods that forecast future capacities and their capacity shortfalls. When predicting the future of air traffic development, it is imperative for researchers and planners to possess the most accurate data for airport capacity constraints. The book discusses in detail the importance of airport capacity constraints on air traffic development, especially for international hubs, along with mitigation strategies for already packed airports. The book analyzes cross-sectional time-series data to provide greater insight into the problems of airport crowding and over-capacity. The authors go beyond mere strategies to derive capacity, adding estimates for comparable capacities and capacity constraints of airports worldwide. As expanding current airports becomes increasingly difficult, and time consuming-especially for hub-the study of current and future airport capacity constraints becomes ever more needed. Large international airports are especially essential to the global air transport network. The book provides insight into correctly assessing and quantifying the problem of limited airport capacity, while offering strategies for overcoming these issues for a healthy global air traffic network. Focuses on airport capacity constraints in the global air traffic network and their implications for the future of air traffic development Features empirical and model-based approaches that forecast airport capacities and capacity shortcomings Provides over capacity mitigation strategies based on sound and reliable data and methodology Addresses capacity constraints at hub airports, providing insight into correctly assessing and quantifying limited capacity for these important players in the global air transportation network Applies econometric models for the implication of restraining factors on the future volume and structure of air traffic

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: International air and marine travel have been left to one side in past negotiations to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, but unless something is done, emissions from this segment of the world economy will form a progressively larger percentage of the total, especially as emissions fall in other activities. Will Sustainability Fly? broadens and contextualizes the knowledge resource available to academics, policy makers, air industry leaders and stakeholders, and interested members of the public. The book focuses on fuel, providing background in technical and policy terms, from the broadest reliable sources of information available, for the necessary discourse on society's reaction to the evolving aviation emissions profile.

Book excerpt: Global climate change should be a concern of all mankind. If left unmitigated the effects will be catastrophic for continued life on Earth. International efforts through the climate change regime seek to address global climate change. The principle of "℗common but differentiated responsibilities and respective capabilities' (CBDRRC) is fundamental to State engagement in this regard. The principle, and its implementation, recognises differences between States in respect of their responsibilities to address climate change as well as their capacities to do so. Providing climate change mitigation measures in the international civil aviation sector proved to be an unanswerable conundrum for the climate change regime due to difficulties in deciding on appropriate emissions allocation. The responsibility for climate change efforts in the international civil aviation sector was transferred from the climate change regime to the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) for resolution. Given the already established regulatory role in international aviation, the decision to do so seems apt. This is, perhaps, an oversimplification of a complex legal environment. ICAO was not founded with environmental considerations as a core concern and there are fundamental clashes between the legal framework in international civil aviation and CBDRRC, the latter having also undergone a dramatic evolution since the referral to ICAO. ICAO has recently introduced its regulatory response to the call of the climate change regime, the Carbon Offsetting and Reduction Scheme for International Aviation (CORSIA). This thesis will illustrate the evolution of the principle of common but differentiated responsibilities to arrive at its contemporary interpretation and discuss the measures delivered by ICAO to determine whether they accord with the principle of "℗−common but differentiated responsibilities and respective capabilities'.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Reconciling the challenges of climate change and local pollution with those of economic growth and mobility, have become increasingly pressing and urgent. By 2050, carbon dioxide emissions from international and domestic aviation are anticipated to double their ~2.4% contribution to global warming; a figure that does not consider the radiative forcing effect of other emissions at cruise altitude.This doctoral dissertation investigated the role for alternative jet fuels (AJF) in mitigating the climate impacts of aviation in decades to come. This socio-environmental research was overarched by a Post-Normal Science (PNS) theoretical framework, where a mixed methodological approach to aeronautics and the application of out-of-field methods, were instrumental for the development of both the descriptive and the normative components of PNS. The descriptive component of PNS centered on the implications for environmental governance, of defining post-normal issues in terms of what is and what can be known. Its normative component focused on identifying mechanisms for informing and improving decision-making in the air transport sector, based on reflexive, inclusive and transparent scientific inquiry.The analysis of the discursive foundations of aviation climate policy, including the International Civil Aviation Organization's (ICAO) alternative jet fuel strategy, revealed abiding instances of data obliquity, information gaps and asymmetries underlying unquestioned forms of problem representations apropos the environmental impacts of air transport.Some of the options identified in this thesis for addressing these issues encompass: a) an enhanced transparency and access to data collected by governments, industry, academia and other third-parties on aviation emissions from and beyond fuel combustion, b) the harmonization of epistemologies for measuring, allocating, assessing, verifying and reporting environmental data so as to render it comparable, c) a reassessment of the sectoral approach to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) for aligning aviation policies and actions with the aims of the UN 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, d) greater engagement of stakeholders in the qualitative production, appraisal and use of knowledge, and e) a broad outreach to end-users for getting them involved, individually, in climate action. Problem (mis)representations within the aviation sector have historically bolstered a weak sustainability approach to its sectoral growth that, unless unsettled and replaced by strong sustainability narratives, will continue to effect long-term micro and macroscale risks and repercussions on people and the environment. These discursive and non-discursive practices may also hinder future deployment of sustainable AJF - particularly in countries rich in fossil resources such as Canada - by encouraging the production of fossil-derived fuels, known as lower carbon aviation fuels (LCAF), and when more economical, by favoring carbon offsetting over direct emissions abatement.Weak sustainability narratives in the aviation sector can be challenged by participatory decision-making, where the understanding of what matters, why does it and who says so is as relevant to the future of AJF as their economies of scale. Multi-stakeholder partnerships are promising mechanisms for bringing ofttimes overlooked strong sustainability perspectives and expertise, into the formulation of policies and regulations on AJF beyond the work of the ICAO.To illustrate this, the Canadian case study offered a comprehensive overview of the status, obstacles, opportunities and next steps for strategically addressing commercialization barriers for AJF, by means of a national roadmap - SAFI Canada. This roadmap was the result of the active and pluralistic involvement of stakeholders within a community of interest on AJF that was partly gathered for this purpose"--

This book was released on 2018-09-06 with total page 381 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1944 the Chicago Convention set out the foundations of public international law regulating international air transport, but until 2016 no international agreement existed to limit its environmental impact. Sustainable Development, International Aviation, and Treaty Implementation explains why the CORSIA scheme, adopted by the International Civil Aviation Organization in 2016, should be implemented in 2020 even though the adequacy of this scheme is still open to doubt and criticism. This book seeks to examine the many dimensions of the effort to contain greenhouse gas emissions from aircraft in a manner consonant with the principles of sustainable development, and examines the development of international law and policy in an area that has remained largely outside the general framework of international environmental law. International civil aviation is a significant polluter of the atmosphere, and in this volume, a group of air law and sustainable development law specialists considers how the international community can respond.
