UTIAS-MITACS International Workshop on Aviation and Climate Change

 
 

The UTIAS-MITACS International Workshop on Aviation and Climate Change was  held on May 29-30, 2008, at the University of Toronto Institute for Aerospace Studies in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The workshop aims to initiate dialogue among academia, government, and industry, toward finding technological solutions to reduce the greenhouse gas emissions from aviation.


The primary focus of this workshop is on technological and scientific issues. Our goal is to bring together some of the world’s leading experts in this area in order to exchange ideas, establish research priorities, and identify opportunities for collaboration.


Participation in the workshop is by invitation only.


The primary subject areas of relevance to the workshop are:

        1. Aircraft design

        2. Engine design

        3. Alternative fuels

        4. Atmospheric chemistry
