In response to growing concern about the environmental impacts of greenhouse gas emissions, airport operators worldwide are increasingly implementing new sustainable practices to help reduce costs, increase efficiency and reduce their environmental impacts. These initiatives include the installation of renewable energy systems as well as other ‘green’ initiatives to promote standard of living and good health. The paper examines the ways in which UK airports have responded to the challenge of reducing the environmental impacts of operations for which they are directly responsible by implementing green and sustainable energy and working practices. The work explores the green airport policies in the UK which leads to a sustainable airport practices in the UK aviation markets.

CHAPTER ONE
1.0 INTRODUCTION
1.1 BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
The growth in air travel has been accompanied by increasing concerns surrounding the associated environmental implications, seen as externalities (Dessens et al., 2014; Kilic et al., 2019). As such, the aviation sector is a major contributor to climate change, and the proportion attributed to aviation is set to increase because it is one of the hardest sectors to achieve greenhouse gas emission reductions (Andres and Padilla, 2018). This is especially the case when compared to other forms of energy consumption, such as industrial and domestic use (Banister, 2019). Much of the research focus has been on greenhouse gas mitigation measures to reduce the environmental impacts from aviation. Climate change has started to impact aspects of human environmental interactions (IPCC, 2014a). While the aviation sector has long been referenced as contributing to the causes of climate change through greenhouse gas emissions, the need for aviation to adapt to the consequences of climate change has not been well researched or considered (Burbidge, 2018; Thompson, 2016).
The main function of an airport is to provide access to air transport both for passengers and cargo. The number of air operations over the past 20 years in UK has increased rapidly, and this has led to a rise in the energy needs of airports to satisfy this demand. As a consequence, the cost of energy supply for airport managers has escalated. At the same time, global energy consumption has soared due to the needs of emerging countries, with the consequent environmental impact. This complex scenario of environmental factors has made airport managers become aware of the need to reduce energy consumption as well as a more efficient use of it.
During the last two decades, the consumption of primary energy and CO2 emissions has grown 50% worldwide (Rowlings et al., 2018). Today, despite the uncertainty about the economic growth outlook in the short and medium term, forecasts show that global energy demand will register a sharp rise and will increase by a third in the period 2015–2040 (Rowlings et al., 2018). This rapid increase in energy consumption is likely to have a significant environmental impact in the near future, and may even cause supply problems in some areas.
Adaptation considers how impacts and risks caused by climate change can be reduced and managed, while emission reductions are designed to mitigate the causes of climate change (IPCC, 2014b). There are high levels of natural variability in the climate system, evidenced by extreme weather events causing heat waves, droughts and floods. According to Burbidge (2018), the projected climate impacts affecting aviation most directly are changes in precipitation and temperature, sea-level rise, wind changes and the impacts of more extreme weather events. In addition, climate change shifts the parameters of the systems that underpin weather patterns, to provide new sets of impacts and risks that will require different management strategies (Dilling et al., 2015). This study was carried out to explore the green airport policies in the UK which leads to a sustainable airport practices.
1.2 Statement of the problem
Emissions from aircraft represent the biggest challenge in our environment. There are two major fuels used in today’s aircraft: the commonly called “jet fuel” used in commercial turbine engines (called Jet A-1, Jet A, and Jet B) and in military jets (called JP-4, JP-5 and JP-8), and the leaded aviation fuel (Avgas) used in piston engine aviation fleets. These fuels each have different impacts. The most significant and ubiquitous environmental impact caused by the use of jet fuels is due to the large quantity of fuel 3 consumed and the altitudes at which commercial airliners and military aircraft operate. Although aviation plays an indispensable role in today’s global economy, it is presently at the center of rising controversy due to its disproportionate contribution to greenhouse gases and the potential to become one of the major causes of anthropogenic climate change. The proposed study discusses the environmental impact of aviation which also identifies ideal policy for the implementation of a “Green Airport” in the Uk.
1.3 Aim and objectives of the study
The main aim of this study is to explore how uk is managing green airports practices. The study shall fulfill the following objectives:
- To Identify the environmental impact of airports operations
- To examine the policies used to manage these environmental impacts by UK airports.
- To study measures used in controlling environmental impact of airports operations
1.4 Significance of the study
The study shall serve as a means of ensuring flight and environmental safety and the issues of professional ethics in the airport which will at the end serve locally as a catalyst to promote energy independence while improving economic conditions. This study shall serve as a means of studying the environmental sustainability measures for airports.
The study shall provide a balanced approach for maximizing the capacity of airports and the possibilities and potentials for future growth in one hand, and minimizing the accompanying negative impacts on the other hand.
1.5 Research methodology
The research work is started with problem identification, which is followed by defining the objectives, literature review, significance, ethical issues and consideration of the study shall be discussed.
The research has then proceeded by introducing the study in full and related literatures were shall be reviewed using magazines, books, journals, internet etc. In parallel with literature review, an in-depth desk study shall be conducted to identify previous studies on environmental impacts of the UK airport. Is in this review that ethical issues and considerations shall be discussed
The chapter three shall discuss the method that can be used in dealing with the Emissions problem from aircraft. In this writing, the main concerns of environmental sustainability raised by operation of airports are highlighted and the importance of engagement of communities as well as effective interference of government as part of the policy planning process for airports sustainability shall be discussed and the result shall be generated with respect to the study method used.
Finally, conclusion and recommendation shall be drafted base on the proposed study.
1.6 Limitation of the study
Some of the main environmental and sustainable development concerns raised with respect to the operation of airports are emissions, noise issues, land use by airports and energy consumption, but this study shall be limited to greenhouse gas emissions of the UK airports operation.
1.7 scope of the study
The scope of this work covers studying the greenhouse impact of airports in the UK, and the policy derived for the purpose of reducing environmental impacts and emissions.
