Did you know that aircraft contribute 12 percent of U.S. transportation emissions, and three percent of the nation’s total greenhouse gas production? If the global commercial aviation industry were considered a country, total CO2 emissions would place the industry sixth – between Germany and Japan – in rankings for overall emissions.
