  • Flying Green from a Carbon Neutral Airport: the Case of Brussels
    sustainability Article Flying Green from a Carbon Neutral Airport: The Case of Brussels Kobe Boussauw 1,* and Thomas Vanoutrive 2 1 Cosmopolis Centre for Urban Research—Department of Geography, Vrije Universiteit Brussel, B-1050 Brussels, Belgium 2 Urban Studies Institute and Research Group for Urban Development, University of Antwerp, B-2000 Antwerp, Belgium; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +32-2-629-35-11 Received: 9 March 2019; Accepted: 2 April 2019; Published: 9 April 2019 Abstract: The aviation sector is one of the fastest growing emitters of greenhouse gases worldwide. In addition, airports have important local environmental impacts, mainly in the form of noise pollution and deterioration in air quality. Although noise nuisance in the vicinity of airports is recognized as an important problem of the urban environment which is often addressed by regulation, other environmental problems associated with aviation are less widely acknowledged. In the climate debate, the importance of which is rising, aviation has remained under the radar for decades. In the present paper, we use the case of Brussels Airport (Belgium) to demonstrate that the local perception of air travel-related environmental problems may be heavily influenced by the communication strategy of the airport company in question. Basing our analysis on publicly available data, communication initiatives, media reports, and policy documents, we find that (1) the noise impact of aviation is recognized and mainly described in an institutionalized format, (2) the impact of aviation on local air quality is ignored, and (3) the communication on climate impact shows little correspondence or concern with the actual effects.

    expat Spring 2013 • n°1 timeEssential lifestyle and business insights for foreign nationals in Belgium INTERVIEW “ I feel increasingly like a citizen of the world” SCOTT BEARDSLEY Senior partner, McKinsey & Company IN THIS ISSUE Property for expats Yves Saint Laurent shines in Brussels The smart investor 001_001_ExpatsTime01_cover.indd 1 11/03/13 17:41 ING_Magazine_Gosselin_Mar2013.pdf 1 11/03/2013 14:53:19 001_001_ExpatsTime01_pubs.indd 1 11/03/13 17:48 Welcome to your magazine t’s a great pleasure for me to bring you the fi rst issue of Expat Time, the quarterly business and lifestyle maga- zine for foreign nationals in Belgium. Why a new magazine for the internationally mobile Icommunity in Belgium? Belgium already has several good English-language magazines for this demographic. However, from listening to our clients, we have realised that there is a keen interest in business and lifestyle matters that aren’t covered by the current expat magazine offer. Subjects like estate planning, pensions, property, work culture, starting a business in Belgium, investments and taxation are of real interest to you, but they don’t seem to be answered in full by any of the current English-language expat magazines. That is a long sentence full of dry business and investment content. It is, however, our commitment to bring a fresh and lively perspective to these subjects with the help of respected experts in the various fi elds. We will look not only at topics related to business in Belgium. The other half of Expat Time will be much lighter and devoted to lifestyle in Belgium: insights from expats in Belgium, a regular light-hearted feature on fundamental changes in the world, arts and culture, events and more.
