Abstract

This article discusses the increasing need for innovative solutions to reduce the environmental impact of airports and promote sustainability in aviation. It focuses on the Airport Carbon Accreditation (ACA) program of Airports Council International (ACI). The research aims to comprehensively overview accredited airports in South America, particularly in Brazil. It discusses the results obtained and explores possible future scenarios. The methodology involved collecting data from the official ACA website, filtering to include South American airports and categorizing by accreditation level and country. The analysis revealed that Brazil leads the way regarding the number and diversity of accreditations and excels in carbon management practices. The comparative analysis identified trends and patterns that indicate a strong commitment to airport sustainability in Brazil, pointing to opportunities for growth in other countries in the region.

Keywords: Airport Carbon Accreditation (ACA); Carbon management; Airport Sustainability; Environmental practices in aviation
