The PSG joins the United Nations program on climate change The Parisian club participates with teams and federations as part of the Sports for Climate Action

Paris Saint-Germain has officially joined the "Sports for Climate Action" program of the UNFCCC (United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change), the United Nations agency responsible for climate and the environment. Yesterday the signature of the owner Nasser Al-Khelaïfi on the agreement arrived and PSG will be committed, just like the other 215 sports organizations, to safeguard the environment and raise awareness in its community on the problem of climate change. As the Parisian president recalls, leveraging PSG's 100 million fans worldwide is the first step towards a sustainable future.

At the head of the project is Lindita Xhaferi-Salihu, a personality who knows the world of sport very well and who has managed to involve federations, clubs, committees and individual personalities. Among the 215 signatures that have already been filed are high-level European clubs such as JuventusArsenal, Liverpool and Tottenham, federations such as the NBA, FIFA and UEFA, FIBA, F1 and FIA, the English Football Association and the German Deutscher Fußball-Bund, NBA franchises such as the Golden State Warriors, other teams such as Sporting Lisbon, Cologne, Southampton, the inevitable Green Rovers, Wolfsburg, Los Angeles Galaxy and LAFC and Portland Timbers. 

The PSG sign joins the already important eco-sustainable activities that the club has implemented in recent years, starting with a solar panel system to power part of the Parc des Princes up to the construction of a new training facility in Poissy from environmental impact close to zero.
