| Summary: | 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. |
