The International Air Transport Association

" IEnvA has a solid track record of
improving the environmental performance
of airlines. As the aviation
industry committed to improving sustainability,
including achieving net zero
carbon emissions by 2050, the expansion
of IEnvA to airports and GSPs is
critical, " said Sebastian Mikosz, IATA's
senior vice president for environment
and sustainability.
IEnvA is an Environmental Management
System based on standards
and best practices that were built in
collaboration with airlines, airports,
ground service providers, IATA and
