# FIRST MOVERS COALITION SECTORAviation

Aviation contributes about 2.5% of global CO₂ emissions, with its climate impact expected to grow rapidly. Decarbonizing air travel is crucial to limit global warming, and protect the planet. Advances in sustainable aviation fuel, cleaner aircraft technologies, and operational efficiencies can curb emissions and make flying part of a low-carbon future.


## FMC Commitment

Members commit to use emerging technologies including sustainable aviation fuels (SAF) with significant emissions reductions, electric, and hydrogen propulsion for air travel by 2030. Airlines and air transport companies set a target of replacing at least 5% of conventional jet fuel demand with SAF that reduces life-cycle GHG emissions by 85% or more when compared with conventional jet fuel, and/or using zero-carbon emitting propulsion technologies by 2030. Airfare and air freight purchasers set a target of replacing at least 5% of conventional jet fuel demand for air transport with SAF that reduce life-cycle GHG emissions by 85% or more when compared with conventional jet fuel, and/or zero-carbon emitting propulsion technologies by 2030 – in partnership with air transport operators.
