In 2012, the U.S. passed a bill into law prohibiting "operators of
civil aircraft of the United States from participating in the European Union's emissions trading scheme." That action threatened agreements allowing U.S. carriers' continued operation in EU airspace.
Briefly explain the aviation aspects of the European Union (EU) Emissions Trading Scheme (ETS) and describe whether you think the U.S. was correct in risking a trade war with the EU in passing this bill. Also, include your opinion on whether the ICAO CORSIA plan goes far enough towards emissions control.
