These represent reductions of 30.6% and 26.8% respectively compared with the three-year rolling average, showing that airports are continuing to improve their carbon performance despite growth in traffic.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Olivier Jankovec, Chair of the <\/strong><em><strong>Airport Carbon Accreditation<\/strong><\/em><strong> Board and Director General at ACI EUROPE<\/strong> said:\u00a0 <em>\u201cThese headline figures and the detailed content of this report are both reassuring and encouraging, given the new reality of the \u201ccontested transition\u201d \u2013 which is seeing political pushback against climate action gaining ground. Indeed, airports are well aware that no matter what, their license to operate and grow will remain conditional on the decarbonisation of aviation. Crucially, this means that for them climate action is not just about driving efficiencies, but also about future proofing their business and air connectivity. In this context, as we look back on Year 16 of Airport Carbon Accreditation, the proactive work of the airport community in managing and reducing carbon emissions comes across as stronger than ever. Airports worldwide are walking the talk on climate action, providing a much-sought-after beacon of hope.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>1.
