As a contributor to global climate change, the aviation industry is also subject to emission level abatement regulations and plans. According to the 2014 Paris Climate Agreement, it is forecasted that the emission intensity of the aviation industry will improve immensely gradually. In the 2 Degree (high efficiency) scenario, emissions from the global aviation industry are estimated to decrease down to 375 grams of carbon dioxide (CO2) per revenue tonne kilometers (RTK).
