As we move ahead, ICAO will actively pursue the formulation of a CO2 Standard by 2013 and new guidance to facilitate the implementation of operational measures with enhanced environmental benefits. Focus will also be placed on a global framework for market-based measures to reduce emissions – all initiatives undertaken with the support of ICAO’s Committee on Aviation Environmental Protection (CAEP).
(...) ICAO multiplied its efforts in coordinating its activities with other UN bodies, States, and international organizations in this area and the UN itself also launched several initiatives related to climate change which necessitated yet more involvement of ICAO.
Environmental protection is a global problem that requires global solutions. (...) ICAO ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION PROGRAMME
