55 european airports going green
Fifty five most prominent European airports have joined the program aimed to significantly reduce the carbon emissions. This initiative is purely voluntary, yet it is attracting a lot of attention thanks to its success.
Flying is a fantastic way of travelling; it is comfortable and quick, relaxing for many. However, there is a downside to such luxury. Airplanes are known to generate huge amounts of carbon emissions and thus are also hardly sustainable.
The Airport Carbon Accreditation program, launched in 2008, aims to establish a more sustainable work with airplanes and those, who have already joined in have presented first successes.
