Thinking about Our Athletes Future

7D Athletics is an United Nations Sports for Climate Action Club

There is overwhelming evidence that human activities have an impact on the global climate, resulting in global warming. We must acknowledge that traveling to play sportscontributes to carbon dioxide emissions, and therefore 7D Athletics is committed to having a net-zero impact. We join clubs across the globe in the UN Sports for Climate Action Initiative.

 
 

UN Climate Change has invited sports organizations to join the new climate action for sport movement. This initiative seeks to empower sports actors in achieving global climate change goals.

From UNFCCC: “Sports organizations can display climate leadership by engaging together in the climate neutrality journey. They can achieve this by taking responsibility for their climate footprint, which in turn will incentivize climate action beyond the sports sector, and therefore help global ambition step-up in the face of the threat posed by climate change.

Uniting behind a set of principles, sports organizations and their communities have created an initiative by collaborating in order to position their sector on the path of the low carbon economy that global leaders agreed on in Paris: Sports for Climate Action.”
