Earth Day this year was April 22nd. For the second year, we held our annual Green Wings Clean-up Challenge, which encourages our members to get together and clean up their favorite local area, hang out with friends and give back to our beautiful planet. Our winner of the prizes this year was Marinna Martens from LA. Congratulations Marinna!

Green Wings is proud to announce an official partnership with Carbonfund.org. We truly believe in Carbonfund’s mission: reduce what you can, then offset the rest!

We reduced 36 tonnes of CO2 , so now our operations run with a clean carbon-free conscious.

Our Earth Day challenge was a huge success, with crews cleaning up across the US from Chicago to LA and even as far as Hawaii and Puerto Rico! Shout out to the winner and true eco-warrior, Kinj, who went above and beyond and totaled 3 cleanups for the month (and already completed one in May). Thanks to everyone for getting involved and making this challenge so amazing. See you all next time!

To help celebrate Earth Day this month, we are hosting an awesome giveaway. A few fantastic brands have donated some great sustainable prizes for one lucky winner. They include a Luggage Works cooler bag, Stojo collapsible cup, Green Wings water bottle, and LastObject reusable swabs/ cotton pads. It’s easy to enter; details can be found at www.instagram.com/projectgreenwings

Here at Green Wings, we understand how challenges with the COVID-19 pandemic have made all of us rethink our daily behaviors at the airport and onboard the aircraft. Safety is paramount in our work and that includes making sure we are all taking steps to prevent the spread of the coronavirus in our public workspace. As a result, we may feel less inclined to stick to our eco-friendly strategies of reusability in favor of single-use items in the hopes that it may be more sterile and sanitary for everyone aboard.
