As “Wimbledon” was earlier this month in the UK the spotlight has been on tennis. This interesting article highlights the 100's of millions of tennis balls that are unable to be effectively recycled each year. So, its good to see how this sport and many other equipment providers are looking at innovative designs to reduce their impact on the environment. 

"The first, most important, from a sustainability [point of view], is: is it actually a net benefit in terms of the associated CO2 emissions of production and the life of the ball?"
