Apparel has a far-reaching environmental impact, contributing about 10% of total global CO2 emissions. As places of convening and retail apparel, stadiums provide an ideal way to engage the broader public and encourage fans to participate in clothing recycling. This policy brief proposes a comprehensive “Green Game Plan” initiative to help stadiums encourage recycling, engage fans, and partner with athletes to reduce climate impact.

This brief was completed as part of a project for the 2022 Climate Cohort, a program to teach environmental experts how to impact policy.
