☆ U.N.-led talks weigh goal to reduce aviation emissions thorough less-polluting fuels

A TotalEnergies tanker truck with sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) is pictured during the 54th International Paris Airshow at Le Bourget Airport near Paris, France, June 19, 2023. ICAO's third Conference on Aviation and Alternative Fuels (CAAF) runs this week ahead of the COP28 U.N. climate summit in Dubai, which starts on Nov. 30. CAAF delegates from more than 100 countries are debating ways to boost supply of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) made from materials like used cooking oil. SAF is key to lowering emissions from aviation, but remains costly and in short supply. Making access to financing more readily available to developing countries, another conference goal, is needed to bolster SAF production outside of the United States and Europe.

☆ Nations seek aviation climate pact despite global tensions

The 193-nation International Civil Aviation Organization's (ICAO) assembly, held every three years, is the first since COVID-19 put pressure on policymakers to speed up reforms. "We have to do something," Emile Nguza Arao, director general of Kenya's Civil Aviation Authority, told Reuters. Officials hope a global target will boost supplies of new Sustainable Aviation Fuel and encourage private investment. Even then, aviation is expected to remain in the cross-hairs of climate groups who see the exercise as a smokescreen. "A long-term emissions reduction goal with no enforceability plan is dead on arrival," said Jo Dardenne, aviation director at Brussels-based Transport & Environment.
