Challenges for US in decarbonizing aviation sector as Mr. Onuma elected ICAO chairman
Tokyo Shimbun | Local Language | News | Dec. 11, 2025 | Climate Change
Toshiyuki Onuma, former deputy director of the Civil Aviation Bureau at Japan's Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism, has been elected as the first Japanese chairman of the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO). In his role, he emphasized the challenge of engaging with the U.S., particularly the Trump administration, which is resistant to climate change initiatives.
ICAO has set a target to achieve net-zero greenhouse gas emissions in the aviation sector by 2050. However, the Trump administration's withdrawal from the Paris Agreement and opposition to environmental policies that may increase costs present significant obstacles to international cooperation on decarbonization within aviation.
Onuma highlighted the difficulty of reaching an accommodation with the U.S. government given its stance against environmental regulations that could raise operational expenses for the aviation industry. This issue remains a primary concern for ICAO’s efforts to promote sustainable aviation policies globally.
