Sports and Sustainability: Mapping a football club's environmental boundary

Have you ever wondered how sport and sustainability come together? Do you want to gain skills as a sustainability consultant? This 60-minute session is a hands-on workshop where you will map the environmental boundary of West Ham United FC - one of the UK's largest sports clubs, operating right next door to the UCL East Campus. Working in teams, you’ll explore what the organisation directly controls, what it owns financially, and where it can drive positive environmental impact. By the end, you’ll understand Scopes 1, 2 and 3 carbon emissions, create a full environmental boundary to inform a carbon inventory, and have an added opportunity to pitch a fan engagement campaign for World Earth Day. No prior sustainability knowledge is needed, just strategic thinking and creativity.
