Cebu Pacific Air on Tuesday announced its partnership with South Pole to establish its climate strategy to strengthen their commitment to environmental stewardship.
“Cebu Pacific supports global aviation’s goal of achieving net-zero carbon emissions by 2050. With South Pole’s guidance and expertise, we will develop a robust plan of action to prioritize interventions for emission hotspots in our operations,” said CEB chief executive Mike Szucs.
“This roadmap will consider and fuse together the tangible initiatives that we have already put in place, as well as plans that will contribute towards our aspirations of meeting aviation’s net-zero commitment,” he said.
South Pole is a leading climate company that develops projects and solutions needed to enable everyone, everywhere to make an impact on climate change.
The International Civil Aviation Organization in 2022 adopted a long-term global aspirational goal of net-zero carbon emissions by 2050 in support of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change.
The International Air Transport Association declared its “Fly Net Zero” commitment in 2021 to achieve net zero carbon by 2050.
The engagement with South Pole involves CEB going through the rigorous process of understanding the greenhouse gas emissions generated from its operations towards setting its near-term and long-term emission reduction pathways.
