Managing Director Andrew Thompson said, “SailGP’s 2024/2025 calendar is another significant milestone in our continued expansion across the globe.

🌏✨ The New York Champions for Change event, powered by SailGP and supported by Apex Group Ltd, was a powerful convergence of leaders, athletes, and partners. We united to harness the power of sport for global change, driving climate action and inclusivity. A standout moment was hearing from Cyrill Gutsch, CEO and Founder of Parley for the Oceans, our Purpose Partner. Cyrill is a visionary leader, tackling environmental challenges like plastic pollution, climate change, and biodiversity loss. Truly inspiring! 💪🌊 #ChampionsForChange #Sustainability #Inclusion #SailGP #RaceForTheFuture

What’s worse than capsizing? 🤔 Plastic pollution! Plastic is intrinsically linked to climate change. Because it is produced from fossil fuels, extracting and creating plastics emits vast amounts of greenhouse gases. The plastic industry accounts for about 6 percent of global oil consumption and is expected to reach 20 percent by 2050. If the plastic industry was a country, it would already be the world’s fifth-largest greenhouse gas emitter. For certain types of plastic the rate of carbon emissions can be as high as 6:1. So for every kilogram of plastic produced, 6 kilograms of CO2 is emitted into the atmosphere. In addition, research has demonstrated that many plastics give off powerful greenhouse gases, including methane, as they break down, contributing to climate change.
