FIFA announce sustainability strategy for 2014 World Cup in Brazil
Posted: Tuesday 26th June 2012
During a presentation of the sustainability strategy for Brazil 2014 at Rio+20 (the United Nations Conference on Sustainable Development), FIFA, the Local Organising Committee (LOC) and the Brazilian government discussed the impacts, both positive and negative, the event would have. The presentation also gave details of what is expected to be one of the organisers’ finest achievements: the event’s ‘green’ stadiums. The expectation is for every venue hosting games at Brazil 2014 to receive LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) Certification.
