NYC Marathon Sets Net Zero Goal For Global Sports
Original: The NYC Marathon Has A Net Zero Goal. Can Global Sports Keep Pace?
The New York City Marathon has adopted a net zero emissions target, prompting questions about whether the wider global sports industry can match its environmental commitments. The move puts one of the world's largest mass-participation events at the front of efforts to cut carbon footprints in athletics. Attention is turning to whether other major competitions and governing bodies will follow with credible climate plans of their own.
Why now: Sustainability in major sporting events is a growing concern, and a high-profile event like the NYC Marathon committing to net zero raises the stakes for the rest of the industry.
