UNFCCC Sports for Climate Action

Background

Sports for Climate Action is an initiative convened by UN Climate Change to bring the sport sector together to agree on a common pathway for climate action. Almost 300 sporting governing organizations, leagues, teams, and clubs have joined the framework, committing to a net-zero, resilient future.
Beyond their own emissions and supply chains, join this event to hear how sports are working with cities, industries, and fans to identify and scale climate solutions in mitigation and adaptation. This event will dive into the potential for systems transformation through the unique spheres of influence that sport naturally holds—from purchasing goods and services to sponsorships—and will conclude with inspiring athlete voices on how sport can become a force for good in addressing climate issues.
