Sports For Nature

Sports for Nature provides a game plan for sports at all levels to champion nature and contribute to its protection and restoration.

TRANSFORMATIVE ACTION FOR NATURE

Sports for Nature aims to deliver transformative action for nature across sports, by 2030 and beyond, enabling sports to champion nature and contribute to its protection and restoration.

Sports for Nature provides a game plan for sports — at all levels — to accelerate and inspire others to take action for nature. One of our guiding principles is to educate and inspire fans to take positive action for nature. With Protect Where We Play, we can inspire positive action for the ocean.

The ocean is
truly
awesome. But it is not invincible.

100% of life on our blue planet is supported by the ocean.

50% of the world’s oxygen is produced by the ocean.

90% of the excess heat from climate change is absorbed by the ocean.

Millions of unique species have their habitats and ecosystems provided by the ocean.

"TOGETHER, WE CAN ALIGN SPORTS AND ENTERTAINMENT TO EDUCATE, ENABLE AND INSPIRE POSITIVE ACTION FOR NATURE."

THE SPORTS FOR NATURE FRAMEWORK

The Sports for Nature Framework asks sports organizations to work towards four principles that will help them protect nature, restore nature, understand and reduce risks to nature and inspire action for nature. The Framework launched in December 2022 with 23 founding signatories and today has 98 signatories and counting, across 30+ sports ranging from major events, sports governing bodies, leagues, and teams, to grassroots sports. 

Teamwork is in our nature. Learn more at www.sportsfornature.org.
