Playing against the Clock: Global Sport, the Climate Emergency and the Case for Rapid Change

David Goldblatt

Climate change is touching every aspect of human life and global sport is no exception: in 2019, the Rugby World Cup was disrupted by unprecedented pacific typhoons; in early 2020, the Australian Tennis Open was disrupted by the smoke blowing in from the country's devastating bush fire. The Tokyo 2020 Olympics were forced to move long distance running events north of the capital as the city's sweltering summer weather nos makes them impossible tu run.

The following report is divided in three sections :

  • Section 1 includes a review of the many ways in which climate change is already taking its toll on global sport
  • Section 2 is dedicated to the measurement of global sport's carbon emission
  • Section 3 shows the state of sport's environmental commitment
