Gander's airport has won the distinction of being the first carbon neutral airport in North America.
The Gander International Airport Authority and its tenant companies are implementing a carbon emissions reduction program involving infrastructure and employee initiatives. The rest of the airport's carbon emissions will be offset by the purchase of credits from a climate consulting business.
The airport has set a goal of reducing its carbon emissions by 33 per cent by 2008. The airport has consulted an engineer to suggest a next-generation energy system that will reduce emissions and costs.
The airport has also formed a green committee to implement green practices at the airport.
