Geht ✈️#Fliegen #klimafreundlich und sozial gerecht? @letsdogabout und ich haben uns das angeschaut: https://t.co/f6bDxo4eCZ

The full name of the session was: "A mobility transition in air travel? Behavioural and institutional change in the face of the climate crisis and the pandemic."
We are grateful for the fruitful discussion with ~25 on-site participants and even more online!

[TRANSFLIGHT @transflight]

Today, at the #stsconference, @thallerannina @AnnaSchreuer, Alfred Posch and Romana Rauter from our team participated, hosted and presented first insights from our project at the session on mobility transition in #airtravel ✈️

Our project made it to Austrian tv! Here you can find a well-researched piece on private jets and their effect on the climate (in German):

#EU makes #ecolabels manadatory for flights from 2025 onwards. What do you think? #greenwashing or useful tool?

[LydiaExplains🌎💡 @LifeLovingLydia]

Was denkt ihr zu #Ökolabels bei #Flügen? ✈️#greenwashing oder sinnvolles Tool, wenn man sowieso fliegt?

Good read showing a) many obstacles and b) cool & innovative action in #academia to reducing the #carbonfootprint of research (including #airtravel): https://t.co/iU8Hxn8K2x

[TRANSFLIGHT @transflight]

@JeffAndDonkeys Thanks for the retweet! What exactly do you mean with that? We are curious in your solutions for climate-friendly business travel!

[TRANSFLIGHT @transflight]

85% of global companies don’t have credible plans to reduce #emissions from #businesstravel by air, as new ranking shows: https://t.co/379gsf3NCn
But as many frontrunners show, this lock-in is not insurmountable 💪

[TRANSFLIGHT @transflight]

@jamesryle @giulio_mattioli best comment of the threat!

[TRANSFLIGHT @transflight]

A thread worth reading! #recommendation

[Giulio Mattioli @giulio_mattioli]

Is air travel really "hard to replace"? That's a surprisingly tricky question.

Short THREAD

[TRANSFLIGHT @transflight]

Worth reading!

[The New York Times @nytimes]

Would you give up flying in an attempt to save the planet? Air travel accounts for about 4% of human-induced global warming, and a small but growing number of people are signing pledges to vacation by bike, train or electric vehicle, anything but planes. https://t.co/qlPuKvz2qb

[TRANSFLIGHT @transflight]

We are very proud of this high-quality work of our team members @AnnaSchreuer, @thallerannina and #alfredposch!

[TRANSFLIGHT @transflight]

Our 2nd paper from our [e]CLIFF project is out! We explored how #university staff & actors in #universitymanagement evaluate potential policies to reduce academic #airtravel . Check it out here: https://t.co/Mhmjy4ZAS2
