The Broad Reach of Green Design : Incorporating Environmental Sustainability in Aviation Facilities

A World Bank series of projects to improve aviation operations in four Pacific island countries is demonstrating that the concept of ‘green design’ goes beyond energy efficiency to the wider goal of environmental sustainability. The aviation program is reducing impacts on a broad spectrum of concerns, including solid waste management and water quality, by designing with the full lifecycle of all project assets in mind.
