The aviation industry has announced its intention to become greener in the future. This report examines the different climate strategies. Do they deliver on their promises? Is carbon-neutral growth a realistic goal?

The report “The Illusion of Green Flying” was originally published by Finance & Trade Watch, currently hosting the Stay Grounded Network, in November 2017 in English and German. With help of our French members, the report has been translated into French now.
