Director-general of the International Air Transport Association (IATA), Alexandre de Juniac, recently called on the EU to replace the current EU emissions trading system (EU ETS) for flights within Europe with the UN offsetting scheme, CORSIA.

It would also represent a weakening of Europe’s international climate commitment and a distortion of competition within Europe’s single market.
