PARALLEL SESSI<strong>ON</strong> A2 – ENERGY <strong>AND</strong> TRAN<strong>SPORT</strong>ATI<strong>ON</strong><br />

Going on a Diet: Shrinking Energy Demand<br />

Energy use and climate change are the most pressing environmental issues facing<br />

the planet and sport is both part of the problem and part of the solution. Sport uses<br />

energy to power buildings and equipment, move people and materials, and enable<br />

travel to events. Innovation and investment in greener energy and transportation<br />

solutions is therefore critical. Experts on this panel discuss the trends and investment<br />

opportunities both broadly and as it applies to sport facilities.<br />

Sport is a multi-billion dollar business at the global level that includes operation<br />

of sport facilities and organizations, media coverage of sport events, sale of<br />

equipment and apparel, and travel by athletes and spectators. How can event<br />

organizers harness the power of the sport supply chain to promote, enable and<br />

reward improved environmental performance? What’s involved in taking an<br />

integrated systems-based approach to managing the impacts and opportunities of<br />

sport? This dialogue highlights emerging best practices by operators and suppliers<br />

around the world.<br />
