Carbon offsetting flights used to be the domain of the wealthy or eco-warriors looking to assuage their guilt. But now even low-cost airlines are taking action to cut their carbon footprint as the aviation industry comes under pressure to reduce emissions. EasyJet last week became the first big carrier to start offsetting carbon emissions on flights across its whole European network, trumping recent announcements by British Airways and Air France to offset all domestic flight emissions from next year. It comes as airlines have realised they need to respond to the growing “flight shame” movement. Over the past two months both International Airlines Group, which owns BA and Aer Lingus, and the Australian carrier Qantas have pledged net-zero carbon flying by 2050. Meanwhile, the German airline Lufthansa plans to introduce a business fare that will automatically offset emissions for corporate customers flying in Europe.
