Green Airports Recognition
The Green Airports Recognition aims to promote environmental best practices to minimize aviation’s impact on the environment and to recognize airport members who have outstanding accomplishments in their environmental projects.
By participating in this initiative, airports can share their environmental projects with other airports in the region and have the chance to be recognized for their achievements.
Platinum, Gold or Silver recognition will be awarded in various airport size categories. The top submissions will be captured in the Green Airports Recognition publication.
