The first AVIATION CO2 conference will be held from 8 to 10 September in Budapest, Hungary.

The event will address the most current policy and technology related issues in the aviation industry, and aims to focus on significant solutions of sustainable transport.

In spite of continuous technological development, aviation remains a substantial contributor to climate change through different emissions. Although the aviation industry is not covered by the Kyoto Protocol, certain restrictive measures are expected to be introduced in the future.

The increasing demand for mobility is the driving engine of continuous development and capacity improvement. In the coming years an unprecedented need will dominate for technical development and the introduction of new technologies.

Growing concern for the environment requires more attention from both equipment suppliers and airlines. Because of the measurable harmful effect of greenhouse gas emissions on the climate, a change of consuming habits is needed in order to mitigate pollution.

Conference participants are expected from international organisations, the European Commission, government agencies, major airlines and aerospace manufacturers. The key objectives are dissemination and promotion of good practices in aviation with a particular focus on climate, energy and environment related issues.For further information, please visit:
