Green Inc. blogs about new EU CO2 travel mandates:
By early next decade most of the jets that take off or land from busy airports in cities like London, Paris and Frankfurt will have to comply with European rules on greenhouse gases. The system will include non-European carriers like American Airlines and Singapore Airlines.
Cleaner air means higher fares. And that's something that doesn't sit well with the cash-strapped US airline industry.
U.S.-based carriers and the U.S. government say that including airlines in regional greenhouse gas initiatives will do little to reduce emissions. They also argue the Europeans should wait for a global deal covering flights in all countries.
