According to Emirates Airlines president Sir Tim Clark, it is evident that the existing options for emissions reduction in the aviation sector will not enable airlines to achieve net-zero targets within the specified timeframe.
“We believe our industry needs better solutions, and that’s why we’re looking to partner with leading organisations on R&D. Our aim is to contribute meaningfully to practical solutions for the long-term sustainability of commercial aviation,” he added.
Clark also highlighted that until “viable solutions” are found, Emirates will “continue to implement” environmentally responsible practices throughout.
