While some sustainable aviation fuels (SAF) can be a solution to decarbonise transport, they will not be scaled up in time to meet the urgency to mitigate climate change and respect the Paris Agreement to limit the increase of temperature to well below 2 degrees Celsius, and to aim for 1.5°C. [...] Set a travel climate budget for the company and per department, and a target to convert a share of flights to rail 2.
