SailGP, where 50-foot catamarans race at over 60 mph in seas and bays globally, is the aquatic equivalent of Formula 1. However, this grand prix sport distinguishes itself with a strong focus on sustainability. SailGP aims to make a positive environmental impact by promoting clean energy, reducing its carbon footprint, and supporting ocean conservation efforts. This commitment to sustainability not only enhances the sport's appeal but also sets a powerful example for how competitive events can drive environmental awareness and action, merging high-speed thrills with a dedication to preserving our planet.
“I’d be lying if I said that it doesn’t get just as competitive as it is on the water,” said Ben Ainslie, CEO of Emirates Great Britain SailGP team. “But at the same time we also get points for collaboration. And of course that’s the right thing to do when you’re looking at tackling issues around climate change. … Collaboration is key.”
