Information to survey participants

Would you like to take part in the research project “Attitudes toward aviation climate policies”?

You are invited to participate in a study about public views on various measures to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from aviation. The results will be shared with policymakers and other stakeholders working on climate strategies for the aviation sector.

Purpose of the project

Aviation contributes significantly to climate change, and governments are considering different policies and actions to reduce emissions. This study examines how pilots view different policies and actions. We are interested in your opinions on these suggestions.

The study is part of a research project led by CICERO Center for International Climate Research and funded by the Research Council of Norway.

Why have you been invited?

You have been recruited through your union Norsk Flygerforbund (NF). Invitations have been sent to all members of the organization to capture diverse perspectives.

Who is responsible for the project?

CICERO is responsible for the project and for the processing of your data.

Participation is voluntary

Your participation is entirely voluntary. There are no negative consequences for choosing not to participate.

What does participation involve?

  • You will be asked to complete an online survey.
  • It takes approximately 6–8 minutes to complete.
  • You’ll be asked about air travel, climate, and your views on a range of proposed policy measures.

CICERO will only receive anonymized data, that is, responses that cannot be linked to you as an individual.
