Virgin Pure recently
became the proud personal sponsor of Forest Green Rover central defender, Jordan Moore-Taylor.
This Saturday we were proudly
cheering Jordan on as, with his help, the team clinched promotion to League
One. But for Forest Green Rovers, Saturday was not just about celebrating the
fact that they had secured promotion to the next tier of the football league,
it was also about celebrating that they had become the first sports team in the
world to travel to a sporting event in a zero-emissions vehicle.
Everyone here at Virgin Pure
agreed that a working relationship with Forest Green Rovers would be a win-win
because of their well-known green credentials. The club’s whole mantra is
focused on sustainability and includes initiatives such as:
●The squad all wear
recyclable tracksuits
●Electric vehicle
charging points at their stadium
●Using a GPS-directed,
solar-powered lawnmower
●Collecting rainwater
that lands on the stadium to irrigate the pitch
●Only offering a vegan
menu
They want to be a club to be seen
as leading the fight against climate change - and it’s not going unnoticed. The
United Nations has officially recognised Forest Green Rovers as the world’s
first carbon-neutral football club, and FIFA described them as the “greenest
team in the world”.
And the sustainable future looks
strong as their new stadium, which they got planning permission for in 2021, is
intended to have the lowest carbon footprint of any stadium in the world.
The
new 5,000 capacity stadium will be made entirely from wood and include a parkland
containing 500 trees as well as having 1.8km of hedgerows planted all around
it.
At Virgin Pure, we know that
people who switch to our system from bottled water help to stop thousands of
single-use plastic bottles from entering the ecosystem. We’re also working hard
on ensuring that every element of our supply process is as eco-friendly as it
can be.
We look up to the work that Forest Green Rovers are doing and we’re
proud to be helping to support them in their quest to make the world a greener
place.
We will be continuing to support
the club for the rest of the season, where we hope they can clinch the league
title, and then continue to provide support as they seek to establish
themselves as a League One club (and hopefully push towards promotion to the
championship!)
