This Earth Day, we are launching our inaugural Sustainable Aviation Outlook Report 2024. As our subscriber, you have early access to download your copy here.

Let’s be honest. If you’re reading this, you do not need a re-telling of the hard facts:

• You know that the aviation industry is going to be incredibly hard to decarbonise.

• You know that despite the seemingly insurmountable challenge ahead of us, the industry is committed to the 2050 net zero goal and many significant approaches are being explored.

• You know that if we do nothing, our current contribution of 2-3% to global emissions will increase to as much as 25% by 2050. 

Most of all, you know the simple, inexorable fact: the world is already reeling from the climate crisis – record temperatures, heatwaves, floods, wildfires, ecosystem damage, loss of livelihoods and economic distress all threaten not just our future but the present as well.

The ship of considering whether to do anything about climate change has already sailed; the question now is how quickly we can decarbonise.

In such a scenario, an airline executive working in sustainability might be tempted to give in to hopelessness or despair.

At SimpliFlying, we attempt to provide an antidote to such pessimism.

Yes, there are no easy solutions, and the path to decarbonisation is going to be hard.

Yes, the impact of investments may not be seen for a few years.

Yes, it’s hard to pass on the additional costs to customers while remaining competitive and profitable.

We hope you enjoy the read. Let us know what you think.

Happy Earth Day! 💚
The SimpliFlying Team

We'd love to hear your thoughts

After reading the book, we would greatly value your feedback. Please spare a few moments to write a brief review on Amazon – even a couple of lines would be great!

If you already have an advance copy, you can add your review HERE. (If you really want to help us with sales rankings, you can purchase the ebook for 99 cents, so that Amazon will consider your review to be “verified”.)

Three helpful tips:

• Did you know that placing keywords in your review can help even MORE people find Sustainability in the Air? 
  Here are some high-performing keywords and phrases that might help when you write your review: aviation book, climate change book, global warming, climate change, future technology book, and technology book.

• Even if you know Shashank and Dirk personally, please refrain from including information such as being long-time friends or co-workers in your review. 
  As potential readers check out the “reviews” section, the reviews will carry more weight if written from the perspective of a reader rather than as a friend.

• If you didn’t get a chance to read the entire book, you can still leave a review.
  Feel free to read as much as you can and leave your review based on what you read. If you like, you can even update your review after you’ve finished reading the book, but there’s no obligation to do so.
