The Role of Forest Conservation in Carbon-Neutral Air Travel

Image
As the aviation industry works toward achieving carbon neutrality, forest conservation has emerged as a critical component of the solution. Forests act as natural carbon sinks, absorbing CO ₂ from the atmosphere and storing it in trees, soil, and vegetation. By protecting and restoring forests, the aviation industry can offset its carbon emissions, contributing to global climate goals while promoting biodiversity and sustainable development. This article explores how forest conservation plays a vital role in enabling carbon-neutral air travel and highlights the initiatives driving this effort.
