International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) is building a carbon dioxide standard for aircraft emissions. The CO2 standard is planning to be carried out by 2016 as the aviation emissions airworthiness standards, which will immediately influences the aircraft airworthiness certification. In this paper, the main context of the carbon dioxide standard for aircraft, basis for the establishment and metrics were studied. In addition, the metric system, the key point of CO2 emissions standards, has also been explained. Moreover, the implementation and criteria of the metric system was presented through computing and analyzing of the active-duty models. As a result, the CO2 emissions standard is aiming at improve the fuel efficiency and operational efficiency, which effectively reduce carbon emissions.
