The inaugural EcoAthletes Collegiate Cup, powered by Climategames, is currently underway! In this 3-month challenge, our workouts get turned into the sequestration/removal of carbon from the atmosphere! Using Climategames’ software. Physical activity is converted into an “environmental currency” that will be used by EcoAthletes to support two CO2 removal projects. You do not have to be a student to participate, as anyone, even fans of the university, are able to join a team and participate! This challenge runs until Earth Day on April 22, so register for Notre Dame’s team and use your workouts for good!
Erin Maron and Isabella Balder are members of the Notre Dame Rowing Team and opening this challenge to the Notre Dame community as part of their capstone project for the Sustainability Minor. If you have questions or would like to know more, please feel free to contact Erin at emaron@nd.edu.
