There’s a great non-profit called Kick Global Warming with a mission to get all North American soccer teams carbon neutral.
The associated costs are incredibly affordable when you consider the long-term positive impact this can have on our environment. In addition to writing a check, you can fight global warming by incorporating a few changes when you head out to play sports:
- Car pool, bicycle, or walk to practice and games,
- Use refillable water bottles,
- Bring snacks that do not have extra wrapping and are not
shipped from around the globe, - Hand down cleats to younger players,
- And (of course), buy the only eco-certified sports balls in the country when you wear out your old one.
