From 2027, India will begin taking part in the Long-Term Aspirational Goals (LTAG) and the Carbon Offsetting and Reduction Scheme for International Aviation (CORSIA) of the International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO). This information was released during yesterday's meeting of the Parliamentary Consultative Committee of the Ministry of Civil Aviation in New Delhi. Jyotiraditya Scindia, the minister of civil aviation, presided over the meeting. One of the ICAO's main objectives is to reduce carbon emissions from international civil aviation. The international organisation has established a number of important aspirational goals in an effort to reduce carbon emissions from aviation and its effects on climate change. Among them are net zero by 2050, carbon neutral growth, and 2% yearly fuel efficiency improvements until 2050. They have been combined under CORSIA and LTAG by the ICAO. Three phases are required for the former's implementation. The Indian Ministry gave the following justification for joining the ICAO's climate action measures starting in 2027: This will enable airlines of developing countries like India to get time to grow more so that they do not face any adverse financial consequences due to CORSIA. Depending on their worldwide activities, individual airlines must bear the financial consequences of offsetting. Only international flights with one-way origins are subject to CORSIA. At the 26th Conference of Parties (COP26) to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, India pledged to achieve net zero emissions by 2070.
