Green Goal™ symbolises the world's first innovative environmental initiative at a
FIFA World Cup™
May 26, 2006 (Press Release) --
Green Goal™ symbolises the world's ...
... first innovative environmental initiative at a
FIFA World Cup™
Green Goal™ propels environmental protection to the forefront of a FIFA World Cup for the first time in the history of football. The 2006 FIFA World Cup™ will plot a new course for the footballing world.
... first "climate neutral" FIFA World Cup™
Green Goal™ assigns a central role to protecting the global climate. For the first time ever at a FIFA World Cup, the event’s effect on the climate will be minimised over and above conventional methods of energy efficiency, use of renewable energy sources and support for environment-friendly transportation. Unavoidable negative effects will be balanced by investment in protective schemes elsewhere, ensuring the 2006 FIFA World Cup™ ends up "climate neutral".
... first major sports event with measurable environment protection targets
Never before has the FIFA World Cup, the world’s biggest sports event, sought to meet measurable environment protection targets.
These targets have been established on the basis of a wide-ranging analysis in the key sectors of refuse, transportation, energy and water, and aim significantly to reduce the environmental impact of the 2006 FIFA World Cup™.
... first FIFA World Cup to bequeath a lasting legacy in terms of environment protection
The stadiums will continue to be hives of activity long after the FIFA World Cup is over. We expect considerable environmental benefits for years to come when the stadiums host Bundesliga fixtures, for example. Green Goal™ is not just a token or a passing phenomenon, but rather a long-term contribution to improving the environmental situation.
