Sustainable aviation and climate resilience

Sustainable aviation and climate resilience are fundamental for today’s aviation industry. The actions airports and airlines take today – to mitigate their impact on climate change and climate change’s impact on them – will define the industry in the coming decades.

The big reset - industry shift towards sustainable aviation

Aviation is experiencing a transformative shift. The push towards sustainable aviation is being driven by a number of converging factors. One of the main drivers is the increasing pressure on the aviation industry to reduce its environmental impact. Governments, regulatory bodies and local communities demand more sustainable practices from airports.

Passengers are also increasing their expectations. Airlines and airports are now expected to prioritize sustainability in their operations. On top of this, the aviation industry needs to adapt to the impacts of climate change, such as rising sea levels and more frequent extreme weather events. The actions that airports take now will be crucial in determining their future success.
