Airports are actively considering approaches to reduce airport-related greenhouse gasemissions. To assist airports with evaluating various strategies, this project analyzed variousgreenhouse gas emission reduction strategies and compiled a list of 125 practices for use inthe airport setting. Technical information is presented for each strategy to assist airport oper-ators with selection and implementation of the strategies that are most appropriate for a spe-cific airport. The strategies can be used for airport-wide greenhouse gas emission reductioninitiatives (e.g., minimizing the use of auxiliary power units) as well as to reduce greenhousegas emissions associated with a specific project (e.g., installing energy efficient equipment aspart of a building renovation). The research results can be used by airport employees in all de-partments, whether they are in the initial stages of learning about greenhouse gas mitigationor already have greenhouse gas emission reduction activities underway.
