The aviation industry creates many economic benefits and social opportunities, despite a number of challenges such as climate change, air quality, noise disturbance and the rapidly changing security environment.

Each year we report on the key environmental issues affecting our business and how we are tackling them. Our corporate responsibility report is an overview of how we manage these issues - what we said we would do over the last year, what we achieved and what we plan to do - which come together to form the various aspects of our corporate responsibility programme.

This year our report describes BAA's overall approach to corporate responsibility, with a specific focus on performance and plans at Heathrow.
