What does an airport have to teach us about sustainable development? ✈️🌱

More than you might think.

Working as a LEED & Sustainability Planning consultant on the ANR Robinson International Airport terminal project in Tobago gave me a front-row seat to something I believe is often misunderstood about green building:

Sustainability isn't one feature. It's an integrated system of decisions.

An airport has to work.

It has to move people efficiently.
It has to manage energy and water.
It has to respond to its climate.
It has to consider materials and construction.
It has to provide a safe and comfortable environment.

And it has to function as part of a much larger transportation, infrastructure and community system.

That is why I don't see sustainability as something that gets “added” to a project at the end.

It has to be part of the conversation between planners, architects, engineers, contractors, operators, communities and decision-makers from the beginning.

The ANR Robinson International Airport terminal went on to receive LEED certification—an important milestone for Tobago and the Caribbean.

But the bigger lesson for me wasn't the plaque.

It was the process.

When different disciplines begin asking the same question—

“How can we make this project work better for people, place and planet?"

—the project becomes more than a building.

It becomes an opportunity to create better infrastructure.

🌱 SITE + BUILDING + ENERGY + WATER + MATERIALS + PEOPLE + OPERATIONS = SUSTAINABILITY

That is the approach I continue to bring to my work as Petal, The Sustainability Planner.

Because sustainable development isn't about making one thing “green.”

It's about making the whole system work better.

What project have you seen where sustainability was genuinely integrated rather than treated as an afterthought?

Growth looks different when you’re the one doing the growing.

It’s not always bigger numbers. Sometimes it’s about getting your time back. Surviving a hard year. Creating something that matters beyond yourself.

“Green building is too expensive.”

I hear this one a lot.

And I understand where it comes from.

Budgets are tight. Construction costs are rising. Developers have timelines to meet. And sustainability is sometimes presented as a long list of additional technologies, certifications, and premium materials.

But perhaps we should be asking a different question:

What is the cost of NOT building for resilience and efficiency?

A building that overheats may require more cooling.

A site that ignores natural drainage can create expensive stormwater problems.

A poorly considered building envelope can increase energy demand.

A vulnerable roof or poorly protected infrastructure can turn a climate event into a major financial loss.

And decisions that overlook the surrounding community can create social and economic costs that never appear on the original construction budget.

The Inter-American Development Bank has found that more resilient building materials and construction methods can be economically beneficial across a range of Caribbean building types—through reduced disaster losses, lower energy use, and lower emissions.

So perhaps the sustainability conversation shouldn't simply be:

“Can we afford to build green?”

It should be:

“Can we afford to build something that isn't resilient, efficient, and fit for the future?”

🌱 RESILIENCE ISN'T ONLY AN ENVIRONMENTAL INVESTMENT.
IT'S A RISK-MANAGEMENT STRATEGY.

This is where sustainability planning can add real value: bringing environmental, economic, spatial, and social considerations into the same decision-making process.

Because sometimes the most sustainable decision isn't the most expensive technology.

Sometimes, it's simply making a better decision earlier.

What’s one sustainability measure you believe is worth investing in at the beginning of a project because of the value it creates over time?

BEFORE YOU BUILD, ASK BETTER QUESTIONS. 🌱

One of the biggest mistakes we can make in development is waiting until the building is designed to start thinking about sustainability.

By then, many of the most important decisions have already been made:

📍 Where the building sits
☀️ How it responds to the sun and prevailing winds
💧 What happens to stormwater
🚶 How people will access it
🏗️ What infrastructure it will depend on
🌿 What natural systems may be affected
👥 And whether the development actually responds to the needs of the surrounding community

Sustainability planning starts much earlier.

Before the first line is drawn, I would ask these 7 questions:

1️⃣ Is this the right place for this development?

2️⃣ What climate risks does the site face today—and what could it face tomorrow?

3️⃣ How can the site work with natural systems rather than against them?

4️⃣ What infrastructure will the development require?

5️⃣ How can we reduce energy, water and material demand from the outset?

6️⃣ Who will use this development—and whose needs might we be overlooking?

7️⃣ How will this project contribute to the wider community, not just the project boundary?

These questions matter particularly in the Caribbean, where climate exposure, infrastructure vulnerability and resource constraints can make the consequences of poor development decisions especially significant.

A sustainable building doesn't begin with the building.

It begins with the decision to build—and where, why and how we choose to build.

💬 What is the ONE question you think every development team should ask before breaking ground?
