A US legal perspective on the EU plan to include international aviation in its ETS

On 7 February 2008 New York-based attorney Stephen Stegich presented a 21-page paper on the European Union emissions trading scheme (EU ETS) and aviation.

Although there have been developments since it was presented (see previous post), the paper provides good background on the issues involved and touches on the legal differences between the EU and others who question the legality of what the EU is planning to do.
