The global survey showed 46% of the 325 executives surveyed believe the aviation industry will meet its goal of net zero emissions by 2050, while 32% believe it will not and 22% are unsure

The aviation industry is split on whether it can meet its climate targets with almost a third of its sustainability executives predicting it will miss a mid-century deadline, a survey commissioned by GE Aerospace suggested on Thursday.

The aviation industry set a 2050 goal of net zero emissions in 2021. The main path is widespread use of Sustainable Aviation Fuel, which so far makes up 0.1 per cent of airline fuel consumption. Rising costs and supply issues are among the biggest hurdles and the industry needs more support, GE said in a poll summary.

“It’s a sign that people are taking it really seriously. The fact that some people forecast differently than other people is okay: let’s get our heads around it and get on with it.”
