It's actually bigger than one might think. The IPCC says contrails account for ~35% of the aviation industry's global warming effect, and these early results (caveat: small scale experiment) showed that this approach reduced contrails by ~54%.

Contrails Technology Could Cut Aviation Climate Impact
By
–
I'll highlight this: "According to a recent IPCC report, contrails account for about 35% of aviation’s global warming impact." So, while contrails may not seem like a big deal, they are. And widespread deployment of this work could eliminate lots of that impact!

Aviation industry rolls out climate change mitigation approach globally
By
–
The really nice thing about this is that, unlike many other things we should do to combat global warming, rollout of this approach can be done relatively quickly and have a large impact worldwide. We're working to roll this out more widely across the aviation industry.

AI-Driven Flight Optimization Reduces Contrails by 54%
By

By doing a controlled study of flight paths for American Airlines flights and then post-analysis of satellite imagery, we were able to show that the flights using this approach reduced contrails by ~54%.

ML Predicts Contrail Conditions to Optimize Flight Routes
By
–
The basic idea is to use ML to predict what regions & altitudes have conditions that will create contrails, & then to perform very modest flight route changes (e.g. ascend or descend a little bit) to avoid making contrails. This video gives more details: https://
