WASHINGTON, DC – FAA Administrator Michael Huerta issued the following statement on Global Carbon Emissions Standards Agreement:
“I am pleased that ICAO reached an international consensus on a meaningful standard to foster reduction in CO2 emissions from aircraft. We are encouraged by this success and believe it puts us on a promising path to secure a robust market-based measure later this year. This is another example of the administration’s deep commitment to working with the international community on policies that will reduce harmful carbon pollution worldwide.”
