Montréal and Sharm El-Sheikh, Egypt, 10 November 2022
Participating in a round table of Heads of State, Prime Ministers and Chiefs of International Organizations during COP 27, ICAO Council President Salvatore Sciacchitano advocated for the realization of the ICAO Assembly’s decision to reach net zero emissions from air transport by 2050.
“Achieving net-zero carbon emissions by 2050 will require substantial and sustained investment and financing over the coming decades. We must furthermore assure reliable and affordable support and capacity-building for the many developing countries and States with particular needs, who will be depending on it to help play their part,” Mr. Sciacchitano said. “An important part of my message to you here today is that the work to begin addressing these objectives for our sector has already started.”
