Climate change
Aviation will make a significant contribution to the global response to climate change, and we are contributing towards the development of local and international solutions.
Qatar Airways is collaborating with industry associations IATA and AACO on the development of a global policy for managing aviation’s greenhouse gas emissions and is fully compliant with regional schemes such as the European Union Emission Trading Scheme.
Qatar Airways is enhancing the efficiency of air travel through our fuel optimisation programme. This involves testing and implementing new ways to save fuel and reduce carbon emissions such as:
Identifying opportunities to reduce aircraft weight and fuel consumption
Optimising efficiency of flight routes
Reviewing the use of energy while taxiing to and from the runway.
