Discover how airports are achieving zero waste, a critical first step towards circularity. Explore our database of initiatives and join us in sharing best practices for a sustainable aviation industry. Let’s collaborate to achieve a global circular economy.
Airports, bustling hubs of global connectivity, generate vast amounts of waste. By reimagining waste as a resource, airports can forge new economic pathways, minimize waste, and lessen reliance on virgin materials. Achieving zero waste is no easy task. Supported by a baseline assessment, the focus is on addressing key streams: plastic, paper, food, and residual waste. The initiatives proposed in the database emphasize prevention and reuse to minimize environmental impact, with recycling considered as a last resort.
Are you intrigued by the prospect of eliminating waste through proactive prevention and reuse strategies, while also maximizing the value of resources? Explore how TULIPS WP Circular Airports, encompasses collaboration among various partners in charting the course for a circular future.
