    A 2% annual fuel efficiency improvement through 2025 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 2% annual fuel efficiency improvement through 2050 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Carbon negative growth Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Net zero by 2040 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E Net zero by 2050 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The 41 st ICAO Assembly adopted LTAG for international aviation of net-zero carbon emissions by 2050 in support of the UNFCCC Paris Agreement's temperature goal. The LTAG does not attribute specific obligations or commitments in the form of emissions reduction goals to individual States. Instead, it recognizes each State's special circumstances and respective capabilities e.g., the level of development, maturity of aviation markets.
