DOHA (Qatar): Paris-Saint Germain (PSG) became the first French football side to join the “Sports for Climate Action” programme of the UNFCC (United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change), the United Nations agency responsible for climate and the environment.
PSG has reasserted its environmental convictions and the desire to help the planet and fight global warming.
“This is an important moment for PSG. By signing up to the UN’s ‘Sports for Climate Action’ programme, we are starting a new chapter in our commitment to protecting the planet. With everyone’s help and the experts’ advice, we want to better structure the eco-friendly initiatives we have rolled out in recent years,” said PSG President Nasser Al Khelaifi.
By signing up to this programme, the club has decided to support a collaborative method tried and tested by the UN’s international environmental experts.
Over the last two years, PSG has undertaken numerous environmental initiatives.
Thanks to the UN’s environmental experts’ recommendations, the club intends to strengthen the positive impact of the measures taken and improve its action in terms of sustainable development.
“There is so much left to do but we are on the right track. PSG is taking responsibility and will involve its 100 million fans worldwide so that we can all push forward to a sustainable future, together,” added Al Khelaifi.
