Does your organisation want to become climate neutral? Does a large part of your organisation’s CO2 emissions come from air travel? Do you want to save travel costs and reduce CO2 emissions? Are you looking for professional expertise to support you in this process?

With my long-standing experience in this area, I support you and your organisation concerning the processes and steps needed to reduce business flights and thus make a relevant contribution to the agreed climate targets.

Susann Görlinger knows how to convince and inspire small working groups as well as large audiences with her professionalism and charisma. 

Prof. Dr. Christiane Mentrup, ZHAW Zurich University of Applied Sciences

It is always enlightening to see Susann’s structured approach and analytical manner and her talent to get to the heart of things. I really appreciate her fast perception of challenges of a project and her experience and resourcefulness that enables her to find solutions for complex tasks. These are the reasons why a regular exchange with Susann is so valuable. 

Dr. Kathrin Fuhrmann, Head of the Green Office Sustainability and Climate Protection, Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg

Particularly in projects that aim to achieve sustainability, climate adaptation and mitigation, participatory and transdisciplinary approaches are not only start-up aids, but also persistent driving forces that get and keep all participants on board without losing sight of the goal. I appreciate how Susann Görlinger organises and supports such processes, provides external impetus and thus helps to uncover obstacles and develop jointly supported solutions. After first working with Susann on a project to reduce flight emissions in academia, our paths have crossed regularly in our joint quest to create and support a sustainable future. 

Prof. Dr. Claudia Frick, Institute of Information Science, TH Köln - Technology Arts Sciences

Susann Görlinger supports and advises the Climate Action Accelerator and its partners on the key topic of air travel reduction. Since a first awareness-raising workshop, we have deepened our collaboration and Susann acts now as the Accelerator’s external advisor on the topic. I particularly appreciate Susann’s commitment to delivering high-quality work thanks to her excellent theoretical and practical knowledge on air travel reduction and her deep understanding of the challenges that come with implementation. Susann went out of her way to develop a practical toolkit on reducing air travel tailored to the humanitarian sector and provided us with valuable strategic advice. I can only recommend Susann to any organisation that seeks professional support to reduce emissions from flights.  

Sonja Schmid, Team Lead, Solutions Unit, The Climate Action Accelerator

I have been working with Susann Görlinger on several occasions for more than ten years in different projects. I have always been impressed by her ability to persistently pursue a topic, to drive it forward with vision, to implement projects thoroughly, reflectively and professionally with a healthy pragmatism, to keep calm and maintain an overview even under pressure and to always have a sustainable world and society in mind.

Prof. Dr. Michael Stauffacher, USYS TdLab, ETH Zürich

Susann has been an invaluable mentor and thought partner in our efforts to reduce flight emissions at ZHAW. Her exceptional expertise in sustainability has been a cornerstone in developing context-specific and effective travel measures. Thanks to Susann’s consulting, we successfully gathered reliable flight travel data and established widely accepted reduction pathways for emissions, all supported by a robust budget framework. Her insightful advice, coupled with her extensive network, will undoubtedly benefit any client seeking to advance sustainability in the travel sector.

Francesco Bortoluzzi, Head of Sustainability Programs, ZHAW Zurich University of Applied Sciences

I had the privilege of conducting a research project on air travel with Susann Görlinger. Thanks to her expertise and wide-ranging experience with implementation in universities and companies, Susann was able to make a decisive contribution to the project and steer it into the right direction.

I have been leading and accompanying projects to reduce business travel since 2016. I am experienced in setting up and implement a flight reduction project within one organisation (ETH Zurich) and have also advised several universities and research institutions in Germany (FlyingLess) and beyond on the topic. I have set up processes within and across organisations and worked closely with stakeholders, co-designed and implemented a monitoring system to measure emissions, and developed training workshops, information materials such as factsheets and a toolbox that can be adapted for other organisations as well. This has also resulted in a scientific publication (https://www.nature.com/articles/s44168-023-00069-y), which shows the process and possible measures to reduce air travel emissions. For the NGO Climate Accelerator I developed a toolkit to help aid organisations to reduce their business travel on their way to climate neutrality.
