Comment l'aviation mondiale peut-elle devenir réellement neutre sur le plan climatique ?

2025

Abstract

What would it take for global aviation to reach climate neutrality? How would this affect people individually and collectively, and how could society adapt? From the perspective of the Geneva airport, what are key metrics today, and how would they change in a sustainable society? Who would fly, and for what purpose? Who would decide, and how could the system be governed to ensure such use of flights best benefits society? The talk will be followed by a public debate, following the 55th anniversary of the ARAG Association.

Civil aviation

Civil aviation is one of two major categories of flying, representing all non-military and non-state aviation, both private and commercial. Most countries in the world are members of the International Civil Aviation Organization and work together to establish common Standards and Recommended Practices for civil aviation through that agency. Civil aviation includes three major categories: Commercial air transport, including scheduled and non-scheduled passenger and cargo flights Aerial work, in which an aircraft is used for specialized services such as agriculture, photography, surveying, search and rescue, etc.

Aviation

Aviation includes the activities surrounding mechanical flight and the aircraft industry. Aircraft includes fixed-wing and rotary-wing types, morphable wings, wing-less lifting bodies, as well as lighter-than-air craft such as hot air balloons and airships. Aviation began in the 18th century with the development of the hot air balloon, an apparatus capable of atmospheric displacement through buoyancy.
