FIFA is working with the MyClimate foundation to offset global warming-related greenhouse gas emissions produced by the 2006 World Cup in Germany, making it the largest climate impact neutral event in the world, and one of the largest “carbon offset” projects. By investing in renewable energy and energy efficiency projects that lead to the avoidance of emissions, greater or equal to the amount of emissions generated by the event, FIFA organizers offset the global warming impacts of the event – making it carbon impact neutral. FIFA took into consideration spectator and participant energy use while attending the event.
