Who owns the sky?

Who owns the sky?

No one. Everyone.

International aviation burns through the carbon budget, yet no one takes responsibility. Its emissions slip through the cracks of the Paris Agreement, left to ICAO, an organization with no real power to cut them. The result? Half-measures like CORSIA, a system built on the illusion that we can keep growing, as long as we offset a little.

But if no one owns the problem, who will solve it?

The EU has taken the first step: counting emissions from the first outbound flight. It’s simple. Logical. Something everyone could do.

The question isn’t who owns the sky. The question is who takes responsibility for it.
