And in other news... Seven U.K. sports governing bodies have come together to put their weight behind the pressing issue of water pollution, unveiling the Clean Water Alliance recently. Immediate milestones of the alliance are focussed on the creation of one unified water quality event guide, and sharing water quality data between multiple clubs and events that share the same blue spaces, to save duplication of time and resources. Outdoor sports often share the same fields of play with others, so there is a mutual benefit to protect these places. Instead of working independently on environmental issues, the CWA underlines the potential for a collective sports voice to be greater—bigger, stronger and more effective in terms of time and resource—than the sum of its parts. 👏Well done the Angling Trust, British Rowing British Triathlon Federation, GB OUTRIGGER CANOE ASSOCIATION, Paddle UK, Royal Yachting Association (RYA) and Swim England who represent a combined 450,000 members, athletes and participants You can read more by following the link below. https://lnkd.in/gRT4TKQX #NoPlanetNoPlay #SEA_theChange #SEASummit24 #Networking #AusSport #ClimateChange #circulareconomy #sustainableprocurement
