Leadership in the Community
Sustainability is more than just a buzzword. It’s the way of life that everyone on the planet is moving towards. Why? Because with the global population explosion, and worldwide pressure on resources there is no other viable way forward.
Golf can demonstrate how people and businesses can consume less, waste less, avoid pollution, save water, enhance biodiversity, conserve energy, use green energy and much more.

Golf can be a catalyst for sustainable living. It can help involve and inspire people in that process. As large natural and semi natural spaces, golf courses bring people into direct contact with the natural world. They can provide the link between business, community and environment.
The sport can champion how people and businesses should work together to enhance biodiversity, mitigate pollution, consume less, waste less, save water, conserve energy and use green energy. Environmentally proactive golf facilities can support the transition towards more sustainable communities. That contribution is invaluable. Golf can influence the communities that house it, in a lasting, positive way completely in step with our changing world.
With the game's close relationship with local and global media - from newspapers to international television networks - we see a sector with both the land and the profile to showcase sustainability in action, in communities all around the world.
The question is, does the game want to step into this space? Into this huge opportunity to be a sustainability leader.
