Being part of the world’s largest airline offers many opportunities to have a positive impact on the world. Delta employees never cease to amaze me with their dedication and willingness to volunteer. This Earth Day, we continue to have much to be proud about.
Delta volunteers took on many beautification projects at the park, including repairing fences, improving hiking trails, and pouring over 2000 lbs of concrete to make a pad for recycling containers at the park.
Our colleagues in Minneapolis are doing a similar beautification project at Pilot Knob Hill, national historic site near the Minneapolis airport.
In the last few weeks, Delta was recognized by the Atlanta Business Chronicle with a “Green Save” award for its efforts in water-conservation and recycling both on aircraft and at its campuses.
Awards are nice, but working for a company where people step up to be an active part of their community is very rewarding. Our customers engage in many programs as well.
Now that we are larger, we have many opportunities in front of us to do even more. Learn more about how you can help from last year’s blog post from Jennifer: Tips for making every day Earth Day.
Enjoy Earth Day 2009! Think about what you can do to help us make a difference!

A major milestone was reached over the weekend with our 100th Wi-Fi-equipped aircraft joining the fleet… but we didn’t stop there to celebrate too long… an additional 7 aircraft were added.
