Air transport has seen a steady increase in performance throughout its history, except for relatively short periods marked by exceptional economic and security events. Although technology has advanced aviation by leaps and bounds, it is still dependent on non-renewable fossil fuel sources and contributes to CO2 production. This topic is not new; it has been prioritized by various organizations for several years, including the International Civil Aviation Organization ICAO and the European Union. In our paper, we aggregated data on transport performance and the impact of aviation on CO2 production over 15 years and analyzed them. Despite the increasing demand for aviation, we can identify the slowdown in CO2 emissions production by aviation. However, given the expected growth in demand over the next decades, it is clear that CO2 production by aviation will increasingly be a problem.
