|
The Finnish airline Blue1 has become one of the first network carriers in the Nordic countries to receive an ISO 14001 certificate for its environmental management system. Blue1’s certified environmental management system takes a systematic approach to environmental commitment and continual improvement of Blue1’s environmental performance. The main emphasis is on executing three environmental programmes in flight, cabin and technical operations. With the help of these environmental programmes the most critical environmental aspects of Blue1’s operations will be concretely affected. These are carbon dioxide and nitrogen oxide emissions, aircraft noise, unsorted in-flight waste and hazardous chemicals. Blue1 takes an active part in reducing environmental impact and works together with the SAS Group for a new environmental strategy. The focus is on reducing carbon dioxide emissions by 20% by 2020, as compared to those in 2007.
