Abstract
Excerpt - The University of New Haven and Ohio University have conducted an extensive review of professional sport leagues green initiatives and have developed a ranking of some of the best industry practices. The initial research was conducted using internet research to identify any stories highlighting what a team, stadium/arena, or league was undertaking in six key categories- site sustainability, water conservation, energy efficiency, recycling efforts, transportation, and food conservation. Additional research attempted to uncover material sources, green fan education, giveaways, green ticketing programs, and other green efforts. The primary ranking system though focused on the six key categories. Besides the extensive internet search, surveys were sent out to all team and/or facility officials. Only 12 responses were received for a response rate of 8.57 percent. The material obtained from the surveys were designed to verify data obtained from Internet resources.
