Abstract

Program Europske unije za trgovanje emisijama je prvenstveno poticaj svim operaterima, pa tako i zračnim prijevoznicima, koji podliježu EU ETS direktivi da na troškovno učinkovit način smanje ispuštanje štetnih plinova u atmosferu. Procjenjuje se da će bez politike dodatnog smanjenja emisija stakleničkih plinova u ovom stoljeću prosječna temperatura na svjetskoj razini narasti iznad dopuštenih vrijednosti gdje će posljedice globalnog zatopljenja postati nepovratne. U ovom radu opisano je štetno djelovanje stakleničkih plinova na okoliš. Također je opisan EU ETS program, kao i njegova implementacija kod zračnih prijevoznika. Rad donosi analizu utjecaja ovog programa na poslovanje jednog zračnog prijevoznika te prednosti i nedostatke programa.

Abstract (english)

The European Union Emissions Trading System has been primarily developed to act as a cost-effective program for reduction of a greenhouse gas emissions. Among others, who needs to comply with the EU ETS directive, it also includes airlines. It is estimated that without further reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, average temperature in the world will increase above the acceptable limits. Thus leading to an inevitable global warming process. In the thesis are described harmful effects of greenhouse gas emissions on the environment. The thesis describes negative effects of greenhouse gases on the environment, as well as the EU ETS program. In addition to this, it shows implementation of the program within an airline. Also, the influence of this program on the operations of an airline is analized here, likewise the advantages and disadvantages of EU ETS program.
