One of the established green policies of Žalgirio arena is Environmental Protection that aims to reduce the negative affect of the Arena and its on going activities on the nature, environment, health and human being in general. The main environmental protection activities:

• The building’s enviromental protection policy. In 2014 the agreement was signed to start the environmental policy including the aims of lowering the risks for the environment and recommendations for arena‘s tenants, employees and guests.
