The path ahead is a major challenge, but if we take an ambitious, moon-shot approach, and leverage the required huge research and development efforts, then I believe we can achieve our goal of climate neutrality in aviation by 2050.
The European Commissioner for Transport, Adina Vălean, brought a hopeful message with her as she addressed the audience. She recognised that “we are faced with a formidable challenge” but said that “recovery is a primary focus; and this recovery is an opportunity to shape the future of the aviation sector.
