Aviation industry 'probably at the forefront' of addressing climate change: Qantas Group

Qantas Group CEO Alan Joyce, speaking at the CAPA Australia Pacific Aviation Summit, said (05-Aug-2016) the aviation industry "is probably at the forefront" of how it addresses climate change. Mr Joyce noted: "We're an industry that agreed a few years ago at IATA to have a sectorial based approach to climate change. We're an industry that has worked with ICAO, and this year hopefully at the ICAO meeting will hopefully have a framework for a market based mechanism for carbon emissions."
