Key business aviation organizations are expanding upon a global effort begun a decade ago to lessen the industry’s impact on the environment, including a new goal to achieve net-zero CO2 emissions by 2050. Industry leaders announced the stepped-up goals during a panel discussion at a media breakfast Tuesday at NBAA-BACE.
