Example: "The government is implementing new regulations to reduce aeroplane emissions and promote greener aviation technologies."
Alternatives: "aircraft emissions" or "plane emissions".

At the moment, carbon emissions from deforestation account for some 18% of global greenhouse-gas emissions, more than all the world's trains, cars, lorries, aeroplanes and ships combined.
