Technical workshop on emissions from aviation and maritime transport Operational Measures Emissions savings can come from improvements in air traffic management (ATM) and other operational procedures Most important fuel saving opportunities come from the implementation of CNS/ATM systems - more direct routings and the use of more efficient conditions such as optimum altitude and speed CO 2 emissions are directly proportional to fuel burn Optimize fuel consumption = reduced emissions 1 tonne of fuel is equivalent to 3.16 tonnes of CO 2
