The last year has been an exciting time for us‚ with the arrival of the first of our new‚ more fuel-efficient aircraft – the Airbus A330s – which will shave up to 15% per seat off our fuel and carbon emissions compared to the aircraft they are replacing. We also don’t forget what happens on the ground and have recently replaced our car and commercial vehicle fleets with more fuel efficient options. Actions like this are vital in helping us make progress

The EPA has enacted new regulations that require cars and trucks to be capable of at least 35 miles per gallon by 2020 and also requires that vehicle emissions standards be reduced by about 15 percent by 2016 (Gardner‚ & Ljunngren‚ 2010). This has a high probability of affecting car manufacturers. The probability of occurrence is not high‚ it is definite. When we couple this situation with the high price

most positive feedback said the country has "seen it’s emissions drop more than 15 percent since 2008 (Rosenthal‚ 2012)." 2008 is years prior to the carbon tax which begs the question: how much of that is due to factors other than the tax? Both the New York Times and CDC wrote‚ "much of that decline can be attributed to a recession‚" which is a decrease in economic participation for an extended amount of time. Meaning‚ the reason carbon emissions went down was because of the global economic crash two
