Chris Boardman, the chair of Sport England, is set to deliver a keynote address on Tuesday, urging Premier League clubs to take a more proactive stance in addressing the climate crisis. In his speech at the Sport Positive Summit, Boardman will challenge the rationale behind the decision of 10 Premier League teams to fly to the United States for pre-season friendlies. He will also highlight the environmental concerns surrounding Tottenham and Newcastle's match in Melbourne, which took place just three days after the conclusion of the season. Boardman emphasizes the importance of clubs aligning their actions with the urgent need to combat climate change, calling for a reduction in short-haul flights and a commitment to more sustainable practices within the sport.
