Commercial aviation’s contribution to climate change is growing, but the global role of private aviation is not well quantified. Here we calculate the sector’s CO2 emissions, using flight tracker data from the ADS-B Exchange platform for the period 2019 to 2023. Flight times for 25,993 priv...
The article focuses on Aviation and the Environment, Report to the United States Congress, a treatise on aviation's contribution to global warming. The report was produced in response to what is considered to be the definitive scientific assessment of aviation's role in global warming. One of ...
Using the new ERF metric, the team found that contrail cirrus' impact is less than half than that estimated previously but still the sector's largest contribution to global warming, by reflecting and trapping escaping heat from the atmosphere. Carbon dioxide emissions represent the second largest c...

At the same time, the aircrafts producing the least amount of emissions are also discussed and this study gives a comprehensive view from multiple perspectives regarding the recent situation of aircraft emissions and their contribution to global warming. Material and Methods In order to assess the ...
This chapter attempts to describe the positive and negative affects of aviation. These impacts occur on different scales that range from the global (aviation's contribution of global warming gases to the atmosphere) to the local (airfield habitat and wildlife control measures). 展开 ...
Aviation fuels are essential for flight transportation. The increasing demand for such fuels threatens the present efforts to mitigate global warming. Chan

1). Both aviation CO2 and the sum of quantified non-CO2 contributions lead to surface warming. The largest contribution to anthropogenic climate change across all economic sectors comes from the increase in CO2 concentration, which is the primary cause of observed global warming in recent decades ...
In general, the transport sector's contribution to global warming will be continuously high in the future. 1. What can we learn about road traffic? A: It has the second largest warming effect on climate. B: It produces 15%of all CO₂ into the air every year....
