The Lufthansa Group has set ambitious climate protection goals. It aims to halve its net carbon emissions from flight operations by 2030 compared to 2019, and to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050. As an additional goal, the Lufthansa Group aims to become carbon neutral within their mobility on the ground in its home markets by 2030. The Lufthansa Group has joined the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and is following a clearly defined CO₂ reduction path.
