LCC is Carbon Neutral

Lufthansa City Center has been consistently avoiding and reducing carbon emissions. Together with Climate Partner, Lufthansa City Center International Headquarters fully compensates the unavoidably produced 32.499kg CO2 emissions by additional carbon offset projects. Thus, LCCI is a certified carbon neutral company since November 2022.

Climate Partner's "Climate Neutral Label" certifies that remaining greenhouse gas emissions have been offset. Next to the international carbon offset, the Lufthansa City Center International HQ also engages in ocean protection. For every ton of CO2 produced, 10kg of plastic are collected from the ocean. This data certainly makes us different and committed towards global environment.
