Menzies Aviation partners with Fort Worth Nature Center and Refuge

Menzies Aviation, the leading service partner to the world’s airports and airlines, has announced a new partnership with the Fort Worth Nature Center & Refuge, one of the largest urban wilderness areas in the United States, spanning an impressive 3,650 acres of forests, prairies, and wetlands.

Recognised as a National Natural Landmark by the U.S. Department of Interior, the Fort Worth Nature Center & Refuge is a treasured site dedicated to education, land stewardship, and ecosystem preservation to support thriving flora and fauna.
Announced on World Rewilding Day (20 March), this exciting collaboration will see Menzies Aviation support two significant prairie restoration projects over the next year. From supporting efforts to expand the acres of native prairie available to the refuge’s bison herd to enhancing habitats for pollinators and fostering a healthy and thriving ecosystem.

The partnership reinforces Menzies’ commitment to supporting rewilding and conservation efforts, like those at Fort Worth, which help to mitigate climate change by restoring carbon-absorbing ecosystems, in line with the United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) 13 (Climate Action) and 15 (Life on Land).

It forms part of Menzies’ All In plan for a fair and sustainable future, which includes a commitment to supporting environmental projects and initiatives that create a positive impact on nature and the environment. The plan also sets out a strategy for the business to achieve net zero by 2045, as approved by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi).
