Oakland International Airport plans to reduce carbon emissions, the Port of Oakland said Monday.
The airport will take part in an international program, the Airport Carbon Accreditation, to implement greenhouse gas reduction measures, said the Port, which oversees the airport.
Level one is the least"stringent," while level six is the most stringent, according to the program's website. Among the carbon reduction measures that the airport is taking is incorporating more energy efficient technology, according to Colleen Liang, the Port of Oakland's acting director of environmental programs and planning. They are also purchasing more alternative fuel or low-emission vehicles for its working fleet, Liang added.
