Tom NCFC 0 Posted January 29, 2008 Hi guys, do any of you know where I can find some information on how football teams are helping the environment (Carbon-neutral, Eco-Friendly etc etc). I know Ipswich have done something but can''t seem to find anything?(P.S. Webteam, could you possibly pin this up for a couple of days, thank you) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CanaryColt 0 Posted January 29, 2008 I cant remember the team but i do recall there being a non league team that built a new stadium out of bio products (a la wood) and the roof had a grass top to reduce carbon emmisions and stuff. im sure if you look it up you might find something. but it the best i can offer.hope it helps.... somehow Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

culverhouse 0 Posted January 29, 2008 David James, the Pompey keeper, is a key proponent of making football carbon neutral. he''s got bio-fuel cars and i think he offsets all his away trips. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Houston Canary 0 Posted January 30, 2008 Environmentalism is a huge scam. Global warming is much ado about nothing. Think of it this way: You go for a run in the park, where there are a bunch of people playing soccer. By the end of the day, how much has all that body heat in such a limited area changed the temperature of the park. NONE. OR, look at the earth using satellite pics. Note how far you have to zoom in to even recognize anything man made. It is ridiculous to think we have much or any affect on the planet''s climate. We are like an ant hill in Wembly. Will that ant hill EVER make the temperature rise? NO! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grando 260 Posted January 30, 2008 Well City have certainly recycled lots of dead wood over the past couple of seasons.And Earnshaw when he was here did his bit by driving around in a Hummer. Most other pros drive similarly fuel-efficient vehicles! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You are aware that America have the second highest CO2 emmissions in the world?As for your project matey, I would consider using Norwich City Football club as a bad example. I cant state why, but a trip to Colney right now (and then in a months time), with a little bit of deep thought and you will see a bad example. (i cant say anymore than constructions works, and use of that construction). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
