Critical Issues in Aviation and the Environment 2014: Environmental Management Systems and Sustainability Measurement

This chapter is part of an e-circular that explores issues that address the major environmental components affected by aviation activities, sustainable solutions that have evolved and continue to be developed to minimize aviation’s environmental impacts, and key processes that link aviation and the environment. The focus of the e-circular is on the state of science and on identification of priority research with potential to yield benefits. This paper discusses environmental management systems and sustainability measurement within the aviation sector. The current state of research, future vision and research needs in these areas are described. A list of additional resources is also included.
