Aviation is a contributor to greenhouse emissions. As the ongoing popularity of air travel for business and pleasure continues to grow, we are working with the aviation industry to create an environmentally sustainable future.
The Department of Climate Change and Energy Efficiency estimates that emissions from domestic aviation are approximately seven per cent of total transport emissions. Airservices is working in collaboration with regulatory authorities, airports and airlines to improve air traffic management and reduce emissions.
