LONDON, England, Aug. 9 (TNSres) -- Imperial College-London issued the following news:
By Sam Ezra Fraser-Baxter
Modern commercial aircraft flying at high altitudes create longer-lived planet-warming contrails than older aircraft, a new study has found.
The result means that although modern planes emit less carbon than older aircraft, they may be contributing more to climate change through contrails.
