Abstract

A sophisticated transport system has evolved in Europe to move people and frets. The air transport industry is growing at rate above the average growth of the economy of the EU: multiplication of short distance flies, the arrival of the "low cost" market, and increasing of aerial fret transportation. Between 1980 and 1995 the air transport demand has grown by 5% and will go on increasing up to 2015. It facilitates economic and cultural exchanges and is a significant source of employment and growth in many regions. But this growth is followed by the growth of air pollution and climate change. The international awareness of the pollution created by aircraft's has started in 1970. The air transport contributes to the greenhouse effect and also to different kind of pollutions such as noise and several kinds of gases emissions. So what is the real link between air transportation and climate change?
