The National Hockey League and the NRDC Team Up To Green the NHL
NEW YORK, NEW YORK — The National Hockey League is acutely aware that responsible stewardship of our planet is a mandate of the highest importance. Our great sport was born of winter weather. It is played by athletes who, in many cases, took their first skating steps on frozen ponds.
Accordingly, the NHL, with support from the Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC), is launching a League-wide green initiative to promote sustainable living and business practices. While most of our 30 Member Clubs and many of our approximately 700 players already are actively involved in programs and projects aimed at promoting sustainability, the NHL today unveils NHL Green, a year-round commitment to making the League and its Clubs more ecologically responsible while educating our fans and raising awareness of environmental issues.
“Our game originated on frozen ponds,” NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman said. “Most of our players learned to skate on outdoor rinks. For that magnificent tradition to continue through future generations, we need winter weather — and, as a league, we are uniquely positioned to promote that message. We are thrilled to be able to work with the Natural Resources Defense Council and to draw upon its vast experience and expertise in greening League events and League and Club operations.”
