Dublin, Ireland – Tao Climate has been nominated in two categories at the 2025 Irish Aviation Industry Awards for its groundbreaking platform, FlyGuiltFree.com. The nominations are for the Green Impact Award and the Emerging Technology Award, recognising the company’s leadership in bringing real carbon removal solutions to the aviation sector.
FlyGuiltFree.com is the world’s first end-to-end solution that enables travellers to measure the carbon footprint of their flights and remove it using verified carbon removal from industrial hemp projects.

Tao Climate is already working with airlines and airports to deploy its technology through easy-to-integrate digital solutions. This includes upsell options for passengers, operational tools for airports, and a carbon removal API that enables seamless integration into booking and loyalty systems.
Gary Byrnes, CEO of Tao Climate, said:
“We created FlyGuiltFree.com to make it simple for airlines, airports, and travellers to decarbonise air travel. Being shortlisted in both the Green Impact and Emerging Technology categories is a strong endorsement of the real-world impact and innovation behind our platform. It shows that the Irish aviation sector is ready to embrace trusted climate solutions that benefit both the industry and the environment.”
