There is not regulation for a World market to order the GHGs emissions. The aviation industry is a relevant part of the sizable tourism industry. The aviation industry has been growing significantly and become a source of concern for skewing the GHGs policies. The commercial aviation industry is international by its interconnected nature, and it isregulated in an international forum of the United Nations, the ICAO. The ICAO is takin the climate change problem into consideration but not acting in a specific manner. These factors prompted the European Union to incorporate the aviation industry to its ETS. There was a significant international dispute about the matter and currently the situation is on hold. One has to consider if this controversy is also a chance for putting into motion a first World market for a specific sector.References
