I'm totally blown away by what Beth Mead went through in Switzerland
. I mean, 30C temperatures are crazy enough, but add dehydration and heat exhaustion to the mix, and it's like playing on a different planet
. As much as she credits her adaptability for success, I think we can all learn from this experience.
Climate change is not just some distant problem; it's already affecting our daily lives
. Sports are being cancelled due to heatwaves, air quality alerts are becoming part of match prep... it's like the world is waking up to a new reality
.
But here's the thing: adapting to climate change isn't about choosing between reducing emissions and protecting vulnerable communities – it's about recognizing that these two goals are actually intertwined
. By investing in adaptation, we're not just saving our sports stadiums; we're safeguarding human rights like access to clean water and healthcare
.
As athletes, entrepreneurs, policymakers... whatever your role is, I believe we all have a responsibility to be part of the solution
. Let's work together to make climate change a thing of the past – not just for our kids, but for ourselves too
.
