“…High temperatures can also adversely affect people engaging in outdoor sports and recreation and represent a growing challenge for the sports industry (136). Heat is a leading cause of sudden death among athletes, and exertional heat illnesses cause thousands of debilitating health outcomes annually (18).…”

Extreme weather and climate events, such as heat waves, cyclones, and floods, are an expression of climate variability. These events and events influenced by climate change, such as wildfires, continue to cause significant human morbidity and mortality and adversely affect mental health and well-being. Although adverse health impacts from extreme events declined over the past few decades, climate change and more people moving into harm's way could alter this trend. Long-term changes to Earth's energy balance are increasing the frequency and intensity of many extreme events and the probability of compound events, with trends projected to accelerate under certain greenhouse gas emissions scenarios. While most of these events cannot be completely avoided, many of the health risks could be prevented through building climate-resilient health systems with improved risk reduction, preparation, response, and recovery. Conducting vulnerability and adaptation assessments and developing health system adaptation plans can identify priority actions to effectively reduce risks, such as disaster risk management and more resilient infrastructure. The risks are urgent, so action is needed now. Expected final online publication date for the Annual Review of Public Health, Volume 42 is April 2021.

“…Orr and Inoue [84] published a conceptual paper characterizing climate change vulnerability for sports organizations, by adapting the IPCC and United Nations International Strategy for Disaster Reduction guidelines to sport organizations. The authors suggested that sport organizations should anticipate the impacts of climate change on their equipment, finances, and the experiences of their athletes, staff, and spectators.…”

BackgroundThe climate change manifestations are associated with dramatic consequences for human health and threat physical activity behaviors.ObjectiveThe aims of this systematic review were to present the potential bidirectional associations between climate change consequences and physical activity (PA) behaviors in human and to propose the first synthesis of the literature through a conceptual model of climate change and PA. MethodsStudies published before October 2019, were identified through database searches in Pubmed, PsycArticles, CINAHL, SportDiscus, GreenFILE and GeoRef. Studies examining the associations between PA domains and climate change (e.g., natural disaster, air pollution, carbon footprint) were included.ResultsA narrative synthesis was performed and the 63 identified articles were classified into 6 topics: air pollution and PA, extreme weather conditions and PA, greenhouse gas emissions and PA, carbon footprint among sport participants, natural disasters and PA and the future of PA and sport practices in a changing world. Then, a conceptual model was proposed to identify the multidimensional associations between climate change and PA as well as sport practices. The results indicated a consistent negative effect of air pollution, extreme temperatures and natural disasters on PA levels. This PA reduction will be more severe in adults with chronic diseases, higher body mass index and elderly. The sport and PA communities can play an important mitigation role in post-natural disaster contexts. However, transport related to sport practices are also a source of greenhouse gas emissions.ConclusionThe climate change consequences increasingly and disproportionately impact PA at worldwide scale. PA has two concurrent mitigation and amplification roles towards climate changes.

Recently, a new line of research has emerged, exploring the impacts of climate change on the sport industry (Dingle & Stewart, 2018;Orr & Inoue, 2019) and adaptation behaviors of athletes, organizations, and fans (Orr & Schneider, 2018).…”

The relationship between sport and the natural environment is bidirectional and critical to the production of sport products, events, and experiences. Researchers have studied sport and the natural environment within the various subdisciplines of sport management. However, given the changing climate and mounting public concern for the environment, there is pressure to reconsider the relevance and significance of the natural environment, which is taken for granted in managerial contexts. Reflecting the importance of the natural environment, the robustness of the current literature, and the potential for the future, we propose a new subdiscipline of sport management called sport ecology. Thus, we proposed, in this paper, a definition for sport ecology, (re)introduced key concepts related to this subdiscipline (e.g., sustainability, green), and highlighted the leading research that serves as the foundation for sport ecology. We concluded with a discussion on the ways sport ecology can inform—and be informed by—other subdisciplines of sport management.
