Sustainability In Aviation Industry: Malaysia's Perspective

The post-COVID era has witnessed a surge in frequent travel among individuals. The proliferation of flights has been swift as numerous countries have eased their border restrictions. However, it is crucial to highlight that this upsurge in air travel has led to a corresponding rise in carbon emissions, ultimately exacerbating the issue of climate change.

Climate change stands as the prevailing and urgent global concern necessitating immediate climate mitigation actions. Unrestrained emissions of greenhouse gases (GHG) have induced worldwide warming and climatic shifts. The concerns are proven where the Earth's temperature in 2022 has risen from the previous year and the rate of warming since 1981 is faster more than twice per decade.¹
