The Right Track for Green Jobs

This report reveals that investment in reducing emissions from aviation and expanding green transport would create hundreds of thousands more jobs - and cost less than the support given to the industry during the Covid crisis.

An annual cost of £9.5bn would allow investment in technological developments to reduce emissions from aviation, along with an expansion in the rail network to allow people to travel without flying. Jobs in rail, low-emissions ferries, domestic tourism, aviation research and development and cleaner fuels generated from electricity to reduce emissions from flights could create a net increase of between 280,000 and 340,000 jobs.
