LEARNING ACTUAL IMPACT OF TENNIS ON ENVIRONMENT + RAISING AWARENESS

The rate at which CO2 emissions are increasing is unprecedented; as a result, the average world temperature is rising as well. The past five years have been the hottest since 1850, and without immediate action, temperatures could climb by 3-6°C by 2100. Currently, 800 million people are at risk from the e ects of climate change, including heat waves, floods, fires, droughts, and sea level rise. By 2030, the worst e ects of climate warming might be irreversible. Tennis is contributor to these carbon emissions. Therefore, we as a Tennis organisation must contribute to the search for answers.
