According to research, the global sport will face serious problems due to climate changes in the coming decades.
There’s a lot of excitement in the snow sport. This sport brings a lot of money and jobs. For example, in the report of the year of the Active Recreation Industry Association, it is reported that snow sports annually bring in 72 billion dollars and generate 695 thousand jobs. Athletes around the world are very concerned about climate change. They stress that it is a serious economic problem for the business of resorts and cities that are designed for cold weather.
Many are very sad because, with this development, winter sports for children will become less popular. They will not be able to open their doors to the world of cold-weather sports. They won’t fall in love with ice hockey like other athletes who have been inspired in the open air and have built professional careers, winning Olympic medals.
Climate change is not just about the winter seasons. The Olympic marathon is being moved from Tokyo to the chilly Sapporo due to the extreme heat that has taken hundreds of lives in recent years. Many athletes and people have also been hospitalized because of heat.
Unfortunately, some sports authorities and organizations do not report openly on serious climate change, but only indirectly recognize the transformation of the weather. This is evidenced by the change in the location of the 2020 Marathon we talked about earlier. The Tokyo Olympic Committee has caused an outcry, with no reason to be cautious about the terrible global climate realities. They should not have missed the moment and the opportunity to inform the public.
