Not enough!
The EU has taken several decisions on air transport this week - and failed to bring it on track for 1.5 degrees.
We need pressure to get the EU to do more!

June 27- #Fitfor55 aviation package: Transport MEPs set impossible targets for using 85% fossil fuel substitutes #SAFs for ✈️ by 2050.
IATA targets for substituting even 5-10% fossil kerosene have NEVER been met since they started to set targets in 2008!

On Tuesday and Wednesday of this week I attended the @SustainableSWS conference and had the pleasure of bumping into this guy. JoeBen took part in a fantastic panel discussion and passionately spoke about the need to make hydrogen aviation a reality.
The conference was amazing but you could see two camps. Sustainable Aviation Fuels and Hydrogen in all its form and hopefully the right colour (apparently 7!). It was agreed that we need both but there was debate on the application of H2 for what use case based around range.
The first panel I moderated was about sustainable and resilient infrastructure with @grahamnbolton, Jason Fowler Chair of the @BritishAviation Group, @DrPaulDWilliams, @ulkuozeren1, David Brian @eurocontrol and Juliana Scavuzzi of @ACIWorld
