In addition to CO2 emissions, flying causes climate damage through non-CO2 emissions, which have not yet been addressed by environmental regulation. Bodo Sturm and Joachim Weimann explain the problems arising from the fact that non-CO2 emissions tend to be surface pollutants, and outline the integration of non-CO2 emissions into the European Emissions Trading Scheme (EU ETS) on the basis of flight-specific CO2 equivalents as a proposed solution.
