Behavioral carbon reduction requires clear calculation logic, understandable feedback and continuous participation mechanisms, otherwise it will easily become short-term propaganda. When the sports industry dealt with carbon reduction participation in the past, each unit often collected venue energy, transportation, catering, materials, and commodities based on their own forms and understandings.

The demands placed on the sports industry by athletes, spectators, members, sponsors, brand customers and venue operators are gradually shifting from policy commitments to specific data, calculation basis and improvement records. In terms of activity carbon inventory, companies must not only hand over the results, but also explain the data boundaries, methods, division of responsibilities and supporting evidence.

How do sports venues manage energy use and carbon emissions?

In the past, when the sports industry dealt with venue energy management, each unit often collected information on venue energy, transportation, catering, etc. based on their own forms and understandings.
