The aviation industry stands at the brink of a transformation, with electric vertical takeoff and landing vehicles (eVTOLs) and flying cars poised to redefine urban mobility. These innovations promise not only to cut down on the carbon footprint of traditional aviation but also to significantly reduce noise pollution, offering a cleaner, quieter future. However, the environmental implications of electric aviation are complex, extending well beyond the reduction of emissions during flight.
