Environment

How can make our industry more sustainable? How can we continue to meet the ever-increasing mobility needs of our citizens, which result in a rapid growth in air traffic, while ensuring a high level of environmental protection? 

This is a challenge that our members are ready to take up, through new engines, new fuels and new aircraft design. 

ASD actively contributes to this effort through its Environment committee, which is closely looking at this crucial issue in the current EU agenda. 

The ASD Environment committee is responsible for the formulation of the ASD environmental policy and is represented in the ASD Air Transport Commission. Together with other ASD membership bodies, it contributes to the promotion of the ASD position on environmental issues with respect to the European Union, or other institutions. It brings together representatives of National Associations and ASD Companies. The topics covered are mainly related to products (e.g. noise, emissions, materials) with operational or industrial aspects. 

ASD and its environment committee actively promote the interest of the European Aerospace industry by monitoring legislation from the three European institutions and by monitoring as well the international legislative developments with a close follow-up on ICAO's activities. The Environment committee coordinates the environmental positions with its ICCAIA partners for the NOx Directive. 

The involvement of the committee in the REACH debate has been very fruitful thanks to the efforts of the REACH implementation working group.
