Formula 1 and the FIA have become the latest signatories of the United Nations’ Sports for Climate Action Framework, underlining its commitment to becoming more environmentally conscious in the fu🍰ture.

F1💜 announced last November it would be introducing new measures to make the sport🎃 carbon neutral by 2030, as we꧋ll as re𒆙leasing detailed information about its current emissions.

Further steps have beenꦐ taken with the signing of the UN’s programme which “aims at supporting and guiding sports actors in achieving global climate change goals”.

Existing m𝓡embers of the scheme include Formula E, the New York Yankees, and the Paris 2024 Olympics.

Signatories must follow five princ꧋iples in the Framework: “undertake systematic efforts to promote greater environmental responsibility; reduce overall climate impact; educate for climate action; promote sustainable and responsible consumption; and advocate for climate action through communication.”

“Both the FIA’s global environmental action and Formula 1’s wide-reaching and pioneering goal to be net zero carbon by 2030 meet all these requirements,” a ꦍstatement from F1 reads.

“This announcement signals the clear intent on behalf of both entities to implement the principles enshrined in the Sports for Climate Action Framework and their commitment to working collaboratively with relevant global stakeholders to dev♔elop, implement and enhance the climate action agend꧂a in sport.”

“As an international Federation comprising 244 me💝mbers in 140 countries and the leader in motor sport and mobility development, we are fully committed to global environmental protection,” said FIA president Jean Todt.

“The signing of this UN Sports for Climate Action Framework reinforces the momentum that ha🍬s been growing in our Fede🐠ration for many years.

“From the intr𒐪oduction of the hybrid power unit in F1 to the creation of the Environment and Sustainability Commission, the entire FIA community has been investing ti𒆙me, energy and financial resources to the benefit of environmental innovations.

“We aim to inspire greater aw꧒areness and best practice in sustai🔴nability motorsport standards.”

F1 CEO and chairman Chase Carey added: “Last year Formula 1 launched its first-ever sustainability strategy recog꧋nising the important role that we must play in tackling climate change. The actions we will take in the years ahead will reduce our carbon footprint and ensure we are net zero carbon by 2030.

“We are delighted to join the UN’s efforts i🍌n this space and will be working closely with the FIA, teams and partners to ensure we deliver on our plans and implement meaningful change.”
