Environmental Guide for Football Clubs – LaLiga

Environmental Guide for Football Clubs – LaLiga

These days society is facing a number of environmental challenges that are becoming more urgent and more important. The effects of climate change and the degradation of our environment can be felt more and more, and society is becoming increasingly aware of these issues and challenges. All this leads to growing regulatory and social pressure on governments and organisations that, to a greater or lesser extent, have an environmental impact on their environment.

As will be seen in this guide, the football industry is just as important as any other in the fight against climate change. On the one hand because, like any other sector, it has a negative impact on itself that it must mitigate, as all the socio-economic players are demanding.

On the other hand, due to football’s increasing turnover and popularity, the industry is also capable of having a very positive impact through its role as a voice in society. Clubs that serve as an example in environmental matters will be creating an enormously valuable level of awareness, by transmitting their messages to a large number of people. In that regard, clubs are a powerful ally for third sector entities and organisations, who they can work with to put the focus on the most pressing environmental problems and where it is most needed on a regional, national and international level.
