Furthermore, the new CFM LEAP engines reduce fuel consumption and CO₂ emissions by 19%, and they are 50% quieter.

This is a voluntary program by IATA that assesses the environmental management of airlines, evaluates key procedures, and, after an audit, independently advises airlines to improve their environmental performance.
