To mark #WorldEnvironmentDay, World Rugby published a landmark report looking at the projected impacts of climate change on the sport of rugby. 🌡️ With the world heating up and likely heading towards a 1.5-degree increase in global average temperatures by 2026, the study demonstrates that consequences on rugby’s practice and ecosystems are significant and will continue to deteriorate in the coming decades in most rugby nations. 🥵🌀☀️💧️🌧️🌊 Using climate projections from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), interviews with experts and data from 10 of its member unions, the “Rugby and climate change” report predicts a surge in extreme heat days, intensity and frequency of droughts, heavy rainfalls and flash floods, as well as increased humidity levels among six main climate hazards analysed that have direct and indirect impacts on rugby participation. The study freely available on World Rugby’s website aims to raise rugby ecosystem’s awareness of future issues threatening the game and empower stakeholders to adopt adaptation measures to safeguard its future.
