FlightPath 1.5 Launches 100 Days After COP21 To Urge The United Nations to Cap and Cut Aviation’s Climate Pollution

A new campaign being launched on Monday, March 21 called FlightPath 1.5--a global campaign of leading environmental voices, dedicated to cutting aviation climate pollution and ensuring that aviation contributes its fair share to the goal of limiting the global temperature increase to 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels. Members of the International Coalition for Sustainable Aviation (ICSA) and other partners like ClimateNexus, New Climate Economy, We Mean Business, Ceres, and 350.org plan to participate in the global social media discussion.

Attached are social media and other campaign assets for your use tomorrow. The campaign landing site is http://www.flightpath1point5.org

2016 is a critical year for action on cutting aviation emissions. The International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO), the United Nations (UN) decision-making body charged with regulating aviation emissions, takes up the issue in September. If it fails to take bold steps, aviation emissions are projected to triple by 2050. Visit www.flightpath1point5.org to learn more.
In 200 days, global leaders will convene to regulate GHG emissions from the aviation industry. This makes 2016 a critical year for climate action. That is why the FlightPath 1.5 campaign is advocating for an effective market-based measure as an important step in addressing aviation emissions. Visit www.flightpath1point5.org to learn more.
