ICAO Aviation Emissions Scheme Exempts Most Bizav Ops
Aircraft operators that emit less than 10,000 metric tons of CO2 in international flight and aircraft weighing less than about 12,500 lbs are exempt.

The International Civil Aviation Organization carved out small emitters, which includes most business aircraft operators, and light aircraft as it agreed today to a comprehensive market-based measure (MBM) to help curb the aviation industry’s carbon dioxide (CO2) footprint worldwide. Dubbed Carbon Offset and Reduction System for International Aviation (CORSIA), the plan was adopted along with the global CO2 standard that was unveiled earlier this year.
