Analysis from Thrust Carbon urges aviation sector to make up front investments that rapidly scale the carbon offsetting market to the scale needed to cover its emissions. With the sector raking in $25.9bn of post-tax profits in 2019, the price of carbon neutrality is therefore "more than affordable" for the sector, it concludes.
