The operator of the international airports of Larnaca and Paphos received the award for ‘Collaboration with other businesses and entities for the reduction of carbon emissions’, as well as a second award for its outstanding performance on the reduction of carbon emissions, among the businesses participating in the Business4Climate initiative.

The award ceremony was held for the first time as part of a contest organised by the Department of Environment, Cyprus Employers and Industrialists Federation and the Cyprus University of Technology.

The Business4Climate programme began in 2018 with the aim to encourage businesses to become more engaged in climate action, by reducing their greenhouse gas emissions by at least eight percent by 2030.

Hermes Airports was one of the first companies to commit to this programme, which now counts 64 participating companies.
