„Sustainability and Aviation - how Lufthansa manages its daily challenges“ – Peter Schneckenleitner

Seminarinhalt:

Lufthansa places great emphasis on developing the company in sustainable ways. This
concern has been firmly anchored in the Group's Principles of Strategy for many years. It
comprises the numerous efforts aimed at improving climate and environmental protection, employee satisfaction, training and continuing education at all Group levels, and sustainable development to increase the company's value long-term.

Lufthansa adopted a new strategy for environmental and climate protection until 2020. The program, which comprises 15 guidelines, is guided by the internationally acclaimed Four-Pillar Strategy for air transport, which encompasses the entire range of practicable measures for climate protection in aviation. Additionally, Lufthansa supports the climate protection targets spelt out by IATA (International Air Transport Association) at its Annual General Meeting in June 2009, which envisage carbon-neutral growth across the industry by 2020 as well as a 50 % reduction in absolute CO2 emissions by 2050 compared to 2005 levels.

The way to these reduction goals and the challenges are shown in the presentation.
