Abstract
Aviation is a vital lifeline for island communities. However, air travel is also a significant source of air pollution and therefore contributes to global warming. The rising sea levels, caused by global warming, heavily affect the livability of pacific islands, causing drink water shortages and crop failure. Sustainable aviation has to be a part of the climate change solution.
