From waste reduction to energy efficiency, the world’s busiest airports are rolling out innovative sustainability strategies in the race to net zero.
Accounting for around 3% of total global carbon emissions, the industry has committed to a 2050 carbon-neutral goal – but challenges persist.
Amid the complex environmental challenge of cutting emissions in the air, one section of the aviation industry has turned out to be a leading light in sustainability – airports.
While these travel hubs operate with energy-intensive demands, many have rallied in recent years to reduce their carbon footprint, conserve energy, and further support the wider community.
From embracing energy-efficient technologies and introducing waste-reduction programmes to electrifying ground fleets and giving back to the community – some of the world’s largest and busiest airports are implementing creative and ambitious strategies as they look to become among the world’s greenest airports.
