Currently, there is no internationally accepted definition for aviation and shipping emissions, which is one reason why they do not appear in national inventories under the IPPC. The UK is certainly pressing for international agreement on this issue. As the hon.

However, we need a global deal on aviation and shipping, just as we need one on a post-2012 framework.
