Our Work
Project development
Climate Neutral Sports is not merely an advocate for carbon neutrality within the sports industry; it is a catalyst for positive change that extends beyond environmental impact. The organization strategically focuses on offset projects that transcend the singular goal of reducing carbon footprints, ensuring a dual impact on both the planet and the communities where these initiatives unfold. By actively participating in the voluntary carbon market, sports clubs and fans align themselves with projects that not only mitigate global warming but also uplift the lives of individuals in the global south.
This approach signifies a commitment to holistic sustainability, where the pursuit of environmental equilibrium harmoniously intertwines with social responsibility, creating a meaningful and lasting legacy for both the planet and its inhabitants. Joining the Climate Neutral Sports Movement becomes a transformative act, where the love for sports converges with a conscientious effort to build a better, more equitable world.
Since we work with the sport industry, our priority therefore is to develop projects that are in line with sports, namely the construction of playgrounds and other light sports infrastructure (pitches, terrain). In addition, we also support projects such as reforestation, cookstoves, education, health, etc. Every project in its kind contributes to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
