'Flight-shaming' could slow growth of airline industry, says Iata

Climate now 'top of the agenda' for investors as airlines try to lower carbon emissions

Speaking at a conference in London where airlines vied to demonstrate plans to decarbonise, Iata said the climate was now "top of the agenda" for investors.
